X Marks The End. Twitter is dead. This platform only reluctantly lives on as a zombie. Warped and disfigured, it marches on like a White Walker, an ugly shell of its former self under the command of a loathsome leader. RIP, Twitter. It was a fun ride. https://t.co/XamM4TjWwD 1.8M views · 1.9K likes · 351 reposts · 4.4K replies Open on X →

One notable thing about this rapidly developing international story: Since Elon Musk took a sledgehammer to Twitter’s verification system, the platform is far less useful during breaking news events, and so people are depending on traditional newsrooms for verifiable information. 2.6M views · 15.8K likes · 2K reposts · 3.3K replies Open on X →

The live-update format across all news websites serves news junkies who are plugged into the cycle well, but for those just trying to get their hands around the basic contours of the story? The old-school inverted pyramid style story probably works better. 90.7K views · 105 likes · 17 reposts · 22 replies Open on X →

The NYT live-blog is a daily disaster, but especially so during huge news events. Hard to fathom how it still exists. 203.1K views · 197 likes · 9 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →
