I still use Twitter some, but I had a similar experience with Facebook. One day I found myself lurking on acquaintance's profiles and thought: "what am I even doing?". I quit and never looked back.
Problem is, I find Twitter really useful. But you have to keep your stream focused (in my case tech and data). It's really easy to doom scroll. In fact that's kind of the design intention.
