I left Twitter last November (I did return briefly for a silly joke in December when utterance of the dread word ‘mastodon’ was briefly banned). Now, I’ve always found Musk intensely irritating, but this wasn’t an issue prior to October or so. Then it started shoving his nonsense in my face, and suggesting I follow him; I was somewhat surprised to discover I had not blocked him previously, and remedied that, but the point is that old-Twitter was actually pretty good at keeping stuff that you didn’t want out of your face. New-Twitter, not so much.

It’s a lot worse now, of course, with idiot blueticks’ inane replies promoted to the top.

It actually does.
