A few days ago, I unfollowed everyone on Twitter, added them all to a list, and I now read that list instead. It’s shockingly better. Only their own tweets and retweets, in order. No ads, no “liked by,” no “people you may know,” …”
I’ve been moving towards the same setup for my Twitter use for the last several months, but with different topic-based lists. It really does make things a lot better, by allowing proper curation of what I see.
While moving over I discovered that Tweetbot (my client of choice) will let me set a list as my "home" view, so I don’t have to jump between multiple lists in one tab, or load into an empty timeline. I have my hobby feed as the default, and use the lists view primarly for my news and current events list.
