You guys really need to get your twitter feed in order. You realize that they have an option to only show latest tweets of people you follow? Then it's just about unfollowing all crypto spammers and you're good. While my feed isn't free of undesired content, it's far better than any other platform I use, including HN (because the good bits from HN get shared on Twitter).
- ricardobeat 5y agoYou are commenting on a post that is about Twitter removing the option to see latest tweets by default… Also, the chronological timeline is not ideal once you follow > 100 profiles. One of the issues at hand here is that they removed the “missed” section and replaced with the algorithmic feed. There is no way to catch up with only the most interesting tweets from people you follow, other than scrolling through all of it.
- zeepzeep 5y agoI'm following over 100 and I do not have a hard time, just scroll up from where you left off last time > other than scrolling through all of it. What do you want? Do you want all latest tweets, or do you want AI to generate a list of good ones?
- ricardobeat 5y agoI guess it depends on how prolific your feed is. I don't have 40 minutes to review the entire timeline every day. AI is not inherently evil. Yes, I want to see the most relevant / controversial / liked tweets by people I follow. Most of that doesn't need any complex algorithm in the first place. What I don't want to see are bubble-inducing "recommended" tweets, or tweets liked by someone I follow (isn't that what retweets are for?), or "topics", or "people you should follow". If I wanted an AI-curated feed I'd just go to facebook or read the news.
