I browsed around for like 10min the other day after a few months of not checking. My feed seemed pretty similar but the big difference was the replies. The dumbest and most hateful are definitely being boosted more than before, and the number of dumb/hateful replies is also higher.

I'm getting frequent API fetch failures. Unable to update my feed as needed is kinda damning for an app that needs new information.

I've noticed these past few weeks the For you algorithm has actually been feeding me content similar to what I've been liking. It hasn't been that way for a year or two so that's nice, the problem i nowadays is I'm slammed with scammy crypto promoted tweets by the bucket load.

Seems fine. Lots of noise from all over the spectrum. My understanding is that they have recently set monthly active user records. Layout / UI isn't great for us non-paying folk but that isn't a new phenomenon.

It's a living identity crisis, but it's not as bad as it was.
