The algo gets on my nerves sometimes. I don't need to see tweets from Jordan Peterson just because someone I follow, follows Peterson.

I like using saved searches to find stuff that has a minimum amount of engagement:

https://twitter.com/search?q=filter%3Afollows%20-filter%3Are...

Click the three dots to modify or save the Advanced Search. The saved search stays in your search field for easy access.

You still get some of the good parts of the algo in the 'Top' section of the search results.

Lists are a really nice way to dampen the more noisey accounts. I haven't found a way to specify a list in the search results.

Also, you can follow a lot of relevant people, and then specify 'people you follow' in the search. Then if you search for a current event, you can get info from people you trust more.
