One of the main reasons I started using Twitter 17 years ago was to find a way to follow people with common interests, who shared things that I couldn't find myself. There was an additional feature that allowed me to interact with them and take part in a conversation.
At first, the timeline was similar to the one we have here, a list of chronological posts from the people I used to follow.
Apart from all the traditional advertising and, in the last years, mostly far-right leaning posts, I think at some point some interesting posts appeared for me, depending on my followers and the posts I liked, shared or commented on. Is this feature bad in itself?
