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.

Same for me with news from Germany. Technically tagesschau.de is a news magazine run by our largest public broadcaster and not the broadcaster itself, but it's the same thing really.

And then I casually browse news.google.com in German to skim over headlines that might not have made the mainstream news. My blocklist there features more than 200 "news" sites, so that I really get a curated feed of some 20-30 trustworthy ones.

I wish there was a whitelist instead of a blocklist for news.google.com
