Twitter is REALLY good if you aggressively curate your contacts, interaction & interests. The aim is to avoid BS political point scoring and MSM driven noise.

Yeah i have no idea how to do that. I tried following some data scientists but they kept posting about politics.

Me too. There's a lot of great people I want to hear from but only when they post about ML, not politics.

I accomplish that by using a ton of keyword filters for different political terms. Any post by people I follow that includes political keywords gets filtered out and I’m left with the relevant stuff.
