If you don’t bother to do anything to curate your experience, you’ll only see what the algorithm thinks will get engagement from you, and what you go find when you first sign up. If you’re actually engaged with one or more communities on the platform, it’s far from a bubble or a waste of time.
A big part of my issue with Twitter when I had it, was just this. You get into a feedback loop where the algorithm absolutely drives content to you that it thinks you want, which can cause that bubble effect.
I feel that in combination with the 'outrage' amplification, its just people pushing an echo chamber narrative that doesnt remotely reflect reality, and once I did start playing around with curating it (mute/block) the effect was so profound, I just decided it was impossible to trust what Twitter was doing with the algorithm at all.
