Dunno which bit of twitter you're on, but my corner has been family friendly pretty much forever.
- I_Am_Nous 3y agoThe main buzz of Twitter is adult content (not perverse, just for adults). So there aren't really any kids to advertise to on the platform and basically anything can show up in the algorithmic feeds.

And, like, a lot of the material he's been tweeting lately is very far from family friendly, unless you're a rather odd and frightening family. (Of course, possibly it doesn't do the Musk hyperpromotion thing anymore.)
