I've tried to use Twitter on multiple occasions over the years. The thing that really annoyed me the last time I gave it a go (and once again ultimately decided there was nothing of value to be found there) was that it would show me posts from pages that I don't follow, but that people I follow follow.

That drives me absolutely crazy because that was one way that political crap that I didn't want got shown to me.

Also, this is shocking I know, but I don't agree with or like everything that people I know and/or follow think or like. So a lot of these posts were from pages that I am already familiar with, have already decided I don't like and want to not follow, and yet it STILL gets shoved in my face because people & pages I follow are into something that they are objectively wrong to be into and should thus rethink every life decision they ever made over the years that helped to drive them towards being interested in such garbage.

I know I'm old but all I want in any "news feed" is to show me latest posts from people/pages I follow directly in chronological order with pagination and no automatic refreshing of the news feed etc.

But I guess I'm not the type of user they are chasing .. and I find myself organically being less and less interested in engaging as a result. I don't need to break social media addiction ... the social media "platforms" do that for me with their "features."
