I use twitter's web app primarily with heavy editing with uBlock origin. I don't see trends, or suggestions or moments.
I block 99% of accounts that show up as 'promoted'.
I always click 'show less often' for 'In case you missed' and 'Who you should follow'.
With all that, I love it. It's indispensable for keeping up with machine learning news.
The core product is the best curated news feed around, but you have to do the curation. Almost all the content twitter itself pushes is noise.
To survive twitter needs to start serving ads that are extremely tailored to me and my feed. Just like with google, the quality of ad results needs to match or exceed the quality of organic results.
