The slow death of Twitter is measured in disasters like the Baltimore bridge collapse (www.vox.com)

Twitter, now X, was once a useful site for breaking news. The Baltimore bridge collapse shows those days are long gone.

Vox is a reputable and very thorough news source, though, usually worth the read.

This two-pager, for example, highlights false Twitter journalists popping in Baltimore to politically spin the recent bridge collapse.

That's not my point. What I'm saying is that I knowingly limit my news diet to what is the most important/interesting and this is neither so I'm not bothering my mind with it. I don't need to know and not knowing has zero effect on my life.
