No, the correct answer is "fuck both of them". You don't need Twitter, you definitely don't need Threads.
You don't even need Mastodon for that matter. You don't need a constant drip feed of dopamine. If you need to stay informed, you can just use news sites or something.

There are enough independent journalist networks out there, but they only inform, there is usually little to no capability for discourse, so yeah
