honestly i dont know why more people dont use tweetdeck. i have my timeline, it's not controlled by an algorithm, it's always chronological, i'm not constantly being suggested stuff, i can split out topics into columns that i'm interested in, i can filter the columns to show exactly what i want.

also can i suggest that filter:follows is super useful if you want to search a term exclusively among your follow list.

Because most people use Twitter on their mobile. How is their mobile web browser app?

Funnily enough recently I've started using tweetdeck on my phone too. I use Firefox and an addon called better tweetdeck to adjust the column width to the same width as my phone screen. There's some jank, but the value of having a Twitter client on mobile that's not the official mobile app, and not crippled like many third party apps are now, it's enough to compensate for that jank.

I would say as a heavy Twitter user my needs are probably not typical, but imo tweetdeck with its live updating columns is the true nature of the firehose that Twitter is, and I love it.
