The idea that we can independently decide what to ignore in life is a fallacy I think. Not read regularly sure, but we need to know what's written on X in some cases when it could be important for news or politics.

Is twitter the only way to get the information you need?

When the information is "what exactly did person X tweet", then yeah. I'm in favour of mostly avoiding X, and I make a point of not spending significant time on it or actively participating. But sometimes, I want to follow a link to a tweet that someone whose work I'm reading thinks is relevant -- or I want to see what a specific person has been saying publicly lately, and it happens that X is one of the main places they do that.

If it's that important, you'll see it elsewhere in no time at all.
