I would add an ability to follow more than 5000 people. I follow mostly AI/ML researchers in the field and this limit is nausiating. Why can't there be more than 5000 interesting people in the world? I would also add ability to privately mark people as "Friend", "Collegue", "Trusted" etc so that I can influence algos to show more stuff from people I care. Facebook has this feature to mark friend as "Favorite" and it has seriously improved my newsfeed. Unfortunately, they limit it to 30 and it's just nonsensical.

Have you tried twitter lists? Also doesn't following 5k people make your timeline way too chaotic?

  One problem with Twitter lists is that they are public by default. When I started using Twitter again last year, I pretty much partitioned everyone I followed into many such lists and discovered over time that though you can make them private they had a nasty tendency to become public again randomly and for no apparent reason. I asked their support repeatedly to look into this and never received a response.
