I could never get used to that sort of app. Be it Twitter, bsky, or even mastodon. If I follow people, my feed gets so much content that I consider spam.

Say, there is a person that is awesome and occasionally posts interesting things. But also posts random spammy stuff, like "just took a shower. I feel so clean!". Why am I wasting my time reading that sort of content?? I think there are 0 people in the world from which I want to read 100% of their content. Maybe very very very few. So, it doesn't make much sense to follow people, and then waste hours scrolling content about which I don't care.

I could follow tags, but they still get so much spam and so I still have to scroll and scroll..

It is just not for me.

Same. Seems like a ton of people would actually like being cursed with telepathy that you can't turn off, being forced to share and receive every thought that crosses the mind.

Are y'all me? I never did Twitter, tried blue sky, got followed by someone pretty famous, but I really couldn't give a fuck less about it. Like you said, I don't want to know someone's every thought and action. Shit just isn't important to me.
