Some people still need it for local news and alerts, I have no issue with this the platforms like mastodon are not always good for this.
Especially since there is no way to find local news based on location
I hate twitter and have been staying away since 2020. (It was terrible for my MH) but even threads has it's issues. (Not talking about privacy. If you're using any large corporate product like apple/Microsoft/Google/Samsung you are being tracked anyway) more issues with the discoverability. You have no way of searching on threads it's missing a lot of really important features. You can with mastodon, but again. Local news is not trending.
Then there is hive which is also hard to discover things on... And minds is a hornets nest I am not touching that.
I am happy there are more competitors than ever for twitter but they still fall short of much needed features
Yeah local stuff keeps me there. Even that's getting worse, every local station/paper has 5-10 bots replying to every post with completely off topic right-wing stuff.
It's still a good place to follow news. Shits getting bad though. Ads are way more intrusive than they used to be and it's like 90% credit card scams or explicit white power stuff
