However, several other factors also help me:
- I'm very aggressive with telling Twitter and any other platform when I don't like something by using the "Not Interested" button or equivalent. This seems to work well with Twitter.
- Twitter loads slowly on my system, so I use a Firefox add on that hides the whole sidebar or whatever they call the trending topics. So I don't see them anymore, even though they weren't really bothering me in the first place.
- I honestly barely use Twitter except to see the latest on specific accounts. I'll usually click on links directly to access them and not depend on a feed. Stuff that is super popular on Twitter tends to be screenshotted and posted to other platforms anyway.
- Overall my even minimal use of Twitter is dwindling; most of the accounts that have content I like on Twitter are also on BlueSky.
