Sometimes it wont show me current tweets. My timeline is full of accounts that I don't follow and nobody I follow replied. I had to block musk's account because it was the only thing I was seeing. Tweets disappear when I try to look at them. Its been frustrating to say the least.

yeah, I noticed they divided your timeline to 'for me' and 'following' you just have to click 'following' and then its back.

There is a following accounts tab, and you can make lists to improve your your timeline.

It's waaaaay better for those of us without an account. It loads every time, rather than failing about 2/3 of the time (at least on mobile—always figured that was some weird dark pattern to try to get me to use the app, did it to me consistently for years across multiple devices), and doesn't block me with a loginwall if I scroll too far before hitting "more replies" anymore.

All the drama around Twitter's also flat-out hilarious if one doesn't care whether Twitter lives or dies, and lots of that drama's on Twitter, so I'd call that an improvement, too.

I take it for what it is, a notification engine for "influencers" and media, and a time-waster, and basically nothing else

it's essentially not good for anything else, if you put too much faith in it to do things like learning or discovering new things, you're going to be disappointed

but at what it does I think it's better than a couple of years ago when I last spent some time using it - it was unmitigated garbage at everything back then
