It seems like your use could be covered by a revived RSS reader-like system, because you want more of a news ticker than social media. That’s fine, but that’s not how a lot of people use Twitter.
Fair but my point was that the point of twitter is following/interacting with public figures while Mastodon does not have any of those mainstream public figures to make it worthwhile to the vast majority of people. The point of reddit is following topics and discussing them with regular people and even on a smaller scale Lemmy can provide that. Mostly I was just agreeing with you.
