You can use third party frontends like Nitter on Web or Fritter/Squawker on Android (available on F-Droid) to still follow accounts for info without the requirement of having an account anywhere. With the condition that viewing is the only thing you can do.

I left Twitter over an year ago and I use the frontends I mentioned to follow about 20 accounts for info on varied topics.

Thank you. I left Twitter when the petulent child took over, but I lament not being able to read local emergency info. I'll check these out.
