If you're using Twitter as a news source what are you even doing in the first place?
Go to the news outlets directly, the BBC, whoever.
I argue this is the one time I wouldn't call it Twitter.
This is a problem unique to Elon's social media's dumpster, X. He's actively hindering free speech and free press
Edit: sorry. I read more comments I see I'm wrong and this was an ongoing thing. Here's my foot in mouth comment for prosperity I guess
It's not unique to Xitter. Facebook has been deprioritizing posts with links in them for a while.
