Personally I’ve just stopped using the internet for checking on my niche hobbies.

My utility company uses Twitter, and keeps it updated with better information than they do via text message alerts. I wish they would get a mastodon account.

And once the boil water notice appeared on Twitter a couple of hours before being sent out by text.
