My experience is different, perhaps because I follow people from both Europe and US (and some in Australia and Asia), so around the clock I always have 10-20 new tweets to go through, which is just as much of social noise that I have time for anyway... but it's still the most reliable source of information for my home country daily politics (because local media is censored heavily) and also gives me a good bird-view on what's going on with web-dev and AI industries (my primary professional interest). I have accounts on all alternative platforms, but none is giving me even nearly that good signal/noise ratio...
