Here's a tip on how to make the best out of Twitter: unfollow anyone that makes you feel that way. Think about it, it's not Twitter per se, it's the people you follow, and that's under your control.

- PragmaticPulp 5y agoA tip: This doesn’t seem to show up for me unless I scroll so long that Twitter runs out of things to show me. If you’re seeing a lot of friends-of-friends content, you might be scrolling too long or not following enough people you actually want to hear from.
- eyelidlessness 5y agoYou can switch to the chronological timeline and it filters all of that out. The only “suggested” content is retweets and the usual ads. Historically Twitter was notorious for reverting this setting, but at least for the last year or so I haven’t had to reenable it.
- vmarsy 5y ago> but get fed with all of their garbage "liked" content and can't filter that out. I definitely filter those out. About once every 6 months the tweets "liked" by people I follow pop up again, it's usually very noticable as the feeds quality turns down dramatically. To get rid of those, I do the "..." > "I don't like this tweet" > "show fewer likes from XYZ" on 2 or 3 tweets, and they're all gone for another few months. It's not ideal, a settings menu where you can disable those permanently would be far better, but it works.

- charkubi 5y agoThis is good advice generally.
