I refuse to believe that anyone ever used social media with private algorithms as a news source.

It's not bad for hyper local news via groups.

That being said, anyone that trusts a social media platform as a source of media probably doesn't use it as a source, but instead just assumes that it's fully representative. Like when some people dismiss tik-tok because they only see people twerking, they assume it's representitive of the whole platform.
