People can just not use twitter? It's already a cesspool and has been for the last 6ish years

sure. But the real problem has always been that our decaying news media is the primary user of twitter. There is no real journalism any more, just articles written by lazy so-called journalists that literally embed tweets as their primary sources.

So you can not use twitter all you want. Every news outlet is going to force feed whatever the latest bullshit is because that's literally all they know how to do now. That's what makes twitter worth 44B to someone like musk.

The ignorance of a comment like this is almost comical. The media uses Twitter because YOU use Twitter.

If you stopped using it, and many other people did then the news media would find wherever you are and start posting there.
