Twitter/X is getting weirder; where now for security news and analysis? News - General (self.cybersecurity)

submitted 5 months ago by skeedooshski

I primarily use Twitter/X as a glorified RSS feed of security news and analysis reporting. Lately its getting heavier on ads and weird pushed content.

I'm not for replacing it with 5 different platforms, but if I was going to use something else, what are peeps using?

Hello,

I use Reddit for this purpose. I have created several security themed multireddits for the purpose of tracking security-related topics:

https://old.reddit.com/user/goretsky/m/security/ - tracks about 90 active security-related subreddits, but no vendors or open source projects and is regularly pruned of inactive subreddits.

https://old.reddit.com/user/goretsky/m/security_vendor/ - tracks about three dozen security vendor and open source project subreddits.

https://old.reddit.com/user/goretsky/m/security_inactive/ - a multireddit specifically for subreddits that were in the first two, but no longer seem to be active (lets me periodically check them for activity)

You can view these by new, hot, top and so forth to get ideas of what's current, might be an emerging issue, what was historically significant, and so forth.

Regards,

Aryeh Goretsky

Hard disagree. What you get out of it depends on what you put in. If you’re just looking to curate a feed of infosec news, this may not be it. If you’re looking for a group of friends to have interesting discussions with, both infosec-related and not, you can make it that place. But that happens slowly and with participation.

Jerry has Infosec.exchange open and very rarely are there admin issues at the federation level. Also, I have NEVER seen Jerry pull a 'shitty admin move' in the couple years I have been on the instance. Let me tell you, there were times I wish he would. But he is just not that type of person.

He has been working his ass off to expand the instance to support the influx of new users, he is very open about this in his daily feeds too. So, there is no way in hell the instance will become 'private' with all the hard work he has put in here.

for what it’s worth. jerry has been tirelessly administering infosec.exchange for years. and doesn’t seem likely to stop. and if he does…. you can move easily to another instance. defcon runs one, the mastodon folks run one. i run one (though mine is mainly for me.) and they all federate with the others. so you don’t miss out being on you’re own or one other than your friends are on.

It's also helpful to follow some hashtags (which the Mastodon android app can't, but f.ex. Tusky can and the web interface also works).

I follow #fido2 and #cryptography, for example, as well as stuff like #bookstodon.

May get downvoted for this but having been one of the earlier adopters into mastodon and infosec exchange specifically, I just don't see how it's better than X. I get a lot of crazy things have happened, but 95% of posts I see on infosec exchange are people congratulating themselves and being so proud they left Twitter and the other 5% are people introducing themselves and talking about their day/treating the platform like Twitter.

I love the idea of Mastodon in general and I have high hopes for it's future, but I really think people are deluding themselves if they say it has better content at the moment.

Better is obviously relative, but Mastodon does take more work. The end result is that you have a feed solely with the information you want and not what is pushed on you. Oh and fewer nazis is nice too.

What I find interesting is after I closed my account, over time I realized I was gradually being linked to Twitter less and less by other external websites/ news sites. Now weeks can go by without it happening.

So if his goal is to make twitter no longer relevant, he's doing a banger job.

I tried Mastadon but I found it very difficult to actually see any posts that were actually worthwhile or interesting. It seems their algorithms for content recommendation need a lot of work or don't exist.

I don't care about who posted most recently, I want to know what's actually worth reading that day.

Also tried Threads but found it difficult to even find the content I wanted to see.

it is based more on hashtags and you choosing who to follow than recommender algorithms. In fact many mastodon users often proudly proclaim they do not want to live in an algorithmically generated bubble being fed content.

It is a double edged sword though as it makes it more difficult to find that content you want to follow - I don't think algorithms are inherently bad as long as they can't be manipulated.

That being said, Reddit mostly managed without algorithms thanks to voting & community driven recommendations, but Mastadon doesn't have that.

Honestly I’ve yet to run into a great Twitter replacement. Honestly Reddit is maybe the best for stuff before it hits blogs/news which is why I loved Twitter. Go follow sysadmin and MSP and they often see stuff before security people do.

Mastodon is alright but just didn’t scratch the itch the same(also like to follow a lot of foreign policy/natsec peeps who won’t do Mastodon).

Recently got into Bluesky and it’s okay. Not Twitter but also I think has a lot of potential.

I see no ads. Pretty close to never. Here's how:

(1) Use a DNS filter like CleanBrowsing.com and set it to filter ads and tracking.

(2) Put Twitter in its own container. You can do this easily in Firefox. That way cookies and other stuff related to ads is isolated from every other website.

(3) Use a Firefox add-on. I use both Privacy badger and uBlock origin.

I don't see ads on almost any site with this method. At work I get ads all the time and it's annoying. Not sure how y'all lived like this for so long. Ads haven't been a part of my life for years. Now you know why.

The closest thing to Twitter would be mastodon right now. You just need to decide on your home instance, build your profile like you would anywhere else, and start finding topics, hashtags, and people/groups to follow. Then filter out the junk(you can black list on keywords) so you can rebuild your RSS like you have it setup on Twitter.

There are a dozen or so Infosec instances to choose from, I like Infosec.Exchange as its stable and a smooth experience. It has a solid Admin team and has no issues talking to the federation. The membership on the instance is pretty open and welcoming.

Weirder? Twitter has always been a weird place.

Hence the weirdER :). Initially a part of its appeal, but increasingly not the case as of lately.

Twitter is a hydra of insane conservatives now. Block one and 5 more are shoved into your face. My block list hundreds long and growing every time I load up that goddamn website. Honestly don't know why I do anymore, it's usually about 30 seconds before I close it again.

That's an interesting one. I'll have a look as I'd be keen on adding the risky business RSS feed to something like that.

Nah, that is not correct. You can join infosec.exchange and follow anyone on infosec.exchange or any of the other mastodon instances with that one account.

no, you’re doing it wrong. you pick a home server based on your preferences. they all federate with eachother. i run my own and the experience has been awesome. you do need to give it time and start following folks to really get involved though.

> Oh, your people are on 8 different servers so you need 8 different accounts

The whole point of being federated is one account allows you to follow people on any of the other servers, so no you don't need 8 different accounts.

I have never used twitter for that, too much garbage on there. I tend to do podcasts and youtube media.

Isn't the /sec/ general completely dead or at the very least only filled with "How to become 1337 haxxor"?

It's been some time since I checked.

Are you looking for just news feeds or something deeper? I use the open threat exchange from AlienVault. Good community - https://otx.alienvault.com

Dude I was getting the WEIRDEST content on X before I had to delete it because it was absurd. I only follow infosec people. Like half of my timeline became fight videos randomly. Like videos of people fighting liveleak style. Stuff that was so violent I surely thought would violate some policy, but had TONS of engagement.

Not sure what they changed over there but no matter how often I scrolled past or reported or did behaviors to show the algo I was not interested in the content, it was all over my TL for like a month. Deleted the app as it just insisted on pushing me weird or violent content. Bummed because it was a great news source for a while.

We pay for threat intel company feeds like Mandiant, along with news and other information. Easier to have it come from a trusted source rather than many toxic places like X and Reddit. These both can draw in people with their own personal agendas and messages.
