I would love to, e.g. "software engineers", "authors", "investors" etc, but imo the feature is completely unusable as there is no batch editing. Definitely has a lot of potential, especially when combined with filters: "Give me Silicon Valley people minus politics and hyperlocal info"
- heymijo 9y agoI get that. Twitter has a lot of usability imperfections. Lists is one, but I still use them. Anywhere from 0 - 200 people, depending on how much they post, is about the maximum I can handle in any one stream. So I segregate into lists. I see you have about 400 people you follow, which would overwhelm me if they were all in my main feed.
- mxschumacher 9y agoMost of those people are have a low tweet frequency though.(it would be great if Twitter provided better statistical insight into these matters) if people start spamming or their signal/noise ratio goes down I unfollow them quite quickly.
- r721 9y ago>it would be great if Twitter provided better statistical insight into these matters Yeah, that's my greatest wish too - something like average tweets per hour/peak tweets per hour/average tweets per day/peak tweets per day stats.
- mrisoli 9y agoI didn't know about lists(not a hardcore Twitter user) until this thread then I went to check it out. First thought was, great feature, but I had the same issue with batch editing, then I tried using lists through Tweetdeck and it is much easier to create lists, remove & add profiles to each list, Twitter might actually become useful for me with this.
