All I want to do is see a list of twitter users who are followed by the people that I already follow, ideally ranked descending by the number of people who I already follow who follow that person. Am I crazy or is this really not possible!?
The "suggestions" page shows some of them, although it is also liberally sprinkled with twitter users who are not followed by any of the other people that I follow. However, I am constantly finding users who are followed by MANY of the people who I also follow, and yet do not appear on my suggestions list (and believe me, I scrolled way, way down until it started showing me eg. Kim Kardashian and Jimmy Fallon). What gives? Is there some third party site where I can find this?

I use this a lot, I think it at least does part of what you are asking.

in terms of the tribalism thing... i know Twitter can totally amplify the echo chamber effect but I follow a pretty wide variety politically and I actually feel it gives me the opposite; I'm much less confident in my ideological priors than I used to be... I don't really follow many *actual* conservatives, maybe like Pethokoukis or Charles Murray are the worst but definitely exposed to a lot more libertarian and centrist ideas than before. when I first started out on Twitter it was all leftists and sjw and it drove me crazy, such a fn downer. a lot of my favourite content on Twitter is between ideological opponents, which was one of the reasons I really liked Matt Bruenig. a lot of the contemporary left like to show off a distaste for wonkish liberalism but are too dumb or too bored by details of policy to coherently argue against it specifically or meaningfully and just blather on the old tired relativistic routine about ideology you hear in college. it was nice to see someone crunch the numbers and argue with a self-described neoliberal like Adam ozimek about welfare, taxes and all that stuff. I definitely learned a lot both ways

flopson, you are in the minority, and:
the first tweets at the top of your timeline won’t necessarily be the latest ones. They’ll be the tweets the service’s algorithm determines most relevant to you, based on a variety of factors. Rather than show you the tweets from 10 seconds before you opened the app, it will now attempt to catch you up on the most important #content since you left.

i pay for tweetbot because it doesn't have these features
plus it syncs timeline, notifications etc across devices (still kind of awed that twitter doesn't do this. it treats its own content like it's a POP3 mail service from 1994)

I'm an avid tweetbot user, but find myself needing to open the official twitter app more and more, to my dismay, because it's terrible. But tweetbot still hasn't implemented viewing more than one photo in a tweet, doesn't play gifs or vines properly, doesn't support Twitter polls, and is clunky when you want to quote rt someone. They need to step up their game.
In other news, twitters decision to show @replies in all TL's of one's followers and allow up to 50 (!) @'s in one tweet is a terrible, terrible idea.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 25 May 2016 18:56 (seven years ago) link
you guys you can turn the whole showing the most important recent content shit off in Twitter.app's settings
― Clay, Wednesday, 25 May 2016 19:06 (seven years ago) link
But tweetbot still hasn't implemented viewing more than one photo in a tweetIt has, it's just bloody difficult to use. You have to swipe through the images when you're looking at them, and there's no indication you can do this.
allow up to 50 (!) @'s in one tweet is a terrible, terrible idea.There's a super-important bit here which they haven't explained, which is you can't just type in 50 @names, because manually-typed @s count against your 140 limit. The free ones are those Twitter adds when you hit "reply". So it's going to pretty hard (though not impossible natch) to get together a posse of arseholes to attack someone via this route.

I had no idea about seeing the multiple images through swiping! Strange there's no arrow or whatever indicating you can (or something telling you there are more photos in the first place).
Thanks for explaining the 50 @'s. I was afraid of the Attack of the 50 @'s tbh, but that seems quite hard, the way you put it.

there are little white dots beneath the images, which are supposed to indicate a 'carousel' concept

Idk with every new hack the impact of such a hack is getting less and less isn't it? Two years ago Id've frantically checked if my account would be among those. Now, seeing what you just posted and caring about my Twitter account, I just shrug. Hacked? Ok, that's life I suppose. *changes pw and flames on*

uhhI guess it's less of a big deal if you're some rando who no one cares about and it's just people spewing out of character garbage on exploited accounts
