Bluesky is a way healthier option. It doesn't have an "algorithm " that pushes unwanted controversial topics into your timeline for "engagement". It's who you follow and their reposts, and that's it. Breath of fresh air to be honest.
Just use the ”following” tab instead of the ”for you” tab, and you get that on X.
Bluesky actually does have an algorithmic timeline (the ‘Discover’) thing, but it does seem a lot less… horrendous than the current Twitter one. I finally got around to deleting my disused Twitter account last week (it would’ve been 18 years old in March!) and glanced at the timeline before I hit the button. Quite frankly I don’t know how anyone uses that.
