Mastodon, Threads, and blogs. News websites like CNN.
edited to add: the problem now is that it's often genuinely fake news on Twitter and you have to separate the wheat from increasingly large piles of chaff. You have to be extremely diligent about curating your account to do that.
- gnicholas 3y agoI get that Mastodon has a Twitter-like goal, but since it's federated does that mean I have to join specific instances to find out about international news, US politics, etc.? Honest question, since I've not tried Mastodon. I thought Threads was not supposed to be about news [1], and at any rate its traffic is dropping. CNN is probably one of the first-movers in the news space, but surely it's behind Twitter in terms of timeliness. 1: https://www.theverge.com/2023/7/7/23787334/instagram-threads-news-politics-adam-mosseri-meta-facebook https://www.theverge.com/2023/7/7/23787334/instagram-threads...
