Wario64 is the only reason I use Twitter now that you can longer send it screenshots from your Switch.

I just checked out N4G and that site is dying.
The hottest news article has just 26 comments.

I don't know where people go these days outside of GAF.

Hasn't gaming only been getting more popular? Maybe people don't want news

If you like the Twitter / X style formats, you can try bluesky. Alot of popular gaming accounts made accounts there after Twitter became X.

I don't know anything about that. Was trying to assist you in your inquiry since no one gave you an answer yet.

But! Maybe ask Trilobit since he might have better insight.

And a lot of popular gaming accounts are run by trans furries

I am following a lot of dead gaming accounts on Twitter because they ran off to their safe space, but there are so many others still on Twitter that it doesn't really matter. Plus Japan are heavy Twitter users so there is still that presence.

So which is better overall for it?

 

[LimanimaPT]

Stay away from social media.

 

[DKehoe]

Sure, go for it. It's good for getting news like that since people will start posting as soon as a story breaks.

There's no harm in giving it a try. With something like Twitter I think you shape your experience with who you follow. So yeh there's some shitty people on there but you can avoid a lot of the shiftiness based on who you are following.

You can also use twitter, but I wouldn't post anything. You can definitely find some gaming news accounts there, though.

 

[Baemono]

Don't use Twitter, nor any other social media app, it became the worst thing about humankind, aka people ewriting the thoughts they have on their toilet. Nobody should see these. And then people might use the random thought you put 5 years ago while bored on the same (or different) toilet to blame you or even get you fired. It starts as a terrible idea, and only get worse.

It's good for some news though, but they are reported everywhere, so not really super important not to miss.

 

[Trunx81]

I get all my gaming news from Gaf. <3
Only go on X to fuel my hate.
To instagram to fuel my insecurity.
To TikTok for new OF content.
Facebook to troll my dad with AI pictures.
LinkedIn to watch each and everyone say that they are the best.
And on Second Life to cry.

That's like suggesting the best method for weight loss is to get aids.

 

[StueyDuck]

Use RSS feeds from all sorts of news sources.

Stay off as much social media as possible, it really is brain rot.

I wouldn't.

People on that platform are insane and completely detached from reality.

 

[dalyr95]

Twitter/Bluesky is basically NeoGaf/ResetEra. Depends which kinda of wankers you prefer.

 

[DKehoe]

I wouldn't.

There are millions of people on Twitter. Are there some weirdos? Sure, same as there are on any platform of a decent size. But, in my experience, it's easy enough to avoid them.

Just follow the things you like and stay on the following tab. "For you" will probably make you upset one way or another. My biggest complaint is that I can't separate what I follow into different categories without making another account. I might just go back to an RSS manager instead

Yeh Following is the way to go, not For You. That way it's far more focused on what you want to see rather than what it thinks you would want to see.

For different categories you could try the Lists feature. I don't use it myself but I believe it allows you to do that.

 

[Liopleurodon]

I was never upset by Twitter.

Wonderful site with lots of interesting things to see.

 

[Punished Miku]

I don't use social media, but I'd use Bluesky in a heartbeat over anything giving money and influence directly to that plastic face ketamine freak.

I use inoreader to aggregate news and interest. But that is normally from media that is dying, You could use it to follow specific twitter feeds as well.

But Twitter does have news faster.

Brother you missed the whole storyline if you are just getting on now

If you know how to filter users, it's one of the best platforms for staying informed. I personally don't even use Reddit anymore to follow news about games and hardware, it's either on X or here on GAF.
