If you have a relatively-short, curated list of people you want to see posts from, I suggest adding them to a list and viewing your "feed" that way. I've been using lists over the home page/feed for a few months and my experience w/ Twitter has been much better. Only posts from the people you've explicitly chosen to get posts from, which also means zero ads (at least on desktop).
I used to follow a couple hundred journalists/researchers etc. "real people" and eventually moved to curating each segment through different accounts and allowing each account to assimilate into the communities instead of a clusterfuck of interests in one timeline (yes i know lists exist but like fb groups it doesnt really serve the purpose of exploring content, not as easily at least)
its been relaxing, carefully curating people that complain/add negativity to my feed out and adding more interesting accounts as time goes on
