I think there is a big difference between "I am using Twitter and thereby I expect random people to get my tweets promoted by their algorithm" and "I am using Twitter and expect that the people who actively went out of their way to follow me will get to see my content" or even "I am using Twitter and expect that the data I gave them in trust to store won't arbitrarily be deleted without first attempting to return it to me" (along with a minimum retention period and potentially some requirement to hand over the data to the state rather than destroy it... note that these are the kinds of requirements we legally place on rental storage agreements). Most of the functionality of these social media platforms are NOT similar to a forum, and if I chose to follow someone it makes no sense for me to whine about the things they say: I can and should just unfollow them.
