Hacker News Reader

I specifically did not follow celebs. My tweets would generally get 1 or 2 likes, maybe about 60 impressions, and the occasional reply from one of a few friends. I would still end up seeing celeb accounts through the your friend follows and your friend liked feature.

It's definitely a matter of who you're following/who follows you, that's true of any site.

IG/FB very much actively encourages (with their newsfeed algorithms, and to an extent also the UI) 'influencer'-type accounts over individual communication. Twitter imo is significantly less bad about this.

I like following programmer fellaz. Even tho half of it promotes its tutorials, its still good to see full of stuff about programming, whats going on around. And there is good amount of interaction on open source, react, graphql related people as far as I see.

Twitter is more like a mouse clicking game with very little interaction per mouseclick.

They still haven't implemented threading and free third party native clients.
