#old for you mixed in some relevant tweets from adjacent people and boosted tweets from people I follow that I may have missed

twitter adding a massive amount of completely random (and often negative or upsetting) tweets to the for you page and removing the context for why relevant tweets are there and instagram actually removing posts from your feed after you've seen them so it can say "you're all caught up" and show you posts from people you don't follow have rendered both almost unusable

#is there anything out there that can fix them. I've looked and it seems like no. nothing like xkit people seem to just settle #now I know what you can do for twitter is switch to following but I was used to for you. I don't follow a lot of people on twitter #so while I want to see a bunch of posts I don't want to follow a ton of people and flood my feed so I miss the posts #from the people I'm actually on there for #old for you mixed in some relevant tweets from adjacent people and boosted tweets from people I follow that I may have missed #(and there was a bit of random stuff mixed in sometimes you had to x out of but nothing like now) #on tumblr it doesn't matter because people mostly reblog and most of the content is similar but I literally only stayed on twitter #for creators who are only on twitter #(and because of the inherent nature of twitter tweets are so fleeting vs. tumblr where you can easily find/access posts) #(so on a website where posts are gone in an instant and you'll never see them again non-chrono maybe does have benefits) #on following without the boosting there's a million tweets from one account in a row and I miss the tweets from the others #and then there are barely any tweets other than that #but now on for you there's so much random stuff mixed in that I can't use it for very long anyway #instagram has a following tab that makes it how it used to be (chrono with no suggested posts. the ideal) but only on mobile. so #personal
