> Twitter doesn't have any form of inherent quality control.

I've always thought of the "Unfollow" button serving that purpose.

The trouble is that people are inconsistent and multi-faceted.

I might really really value a particular friend's opinion on tech, but constantly roll my eyes and sigh when he live-tweets his hot takes on Eurovision or football.

It would be cool if Twitter could do some sort of clever analysis on a persons tweet history and when you start following someone say: "Dave often tweets about US Politics, Baseball, Skiing and Programming. Which of these topics do you want to follow".

Multi-faceted is the thing Twitter and other person-based share/follow don't work well with. I ended up creating another account for music/art, separating it from my tech/business activity. But its pretty tedious to manage...

Also, when I see a number of retweets for the same account in my feed, it suggests quality. More so if the retweets are by different accounts.
