The junkyard of settings menus is one of many reasons as to why Twitter’s first-party experience is awful. Case in point, it is no longer possible to block retweets globally: help.twitter.com/en/using-…

@simonwoods It’s a pain to do it manually , but the retweets seem to follow the 80/20 rule. Once I disabled the most prolific retweeters, the difference was notable. But I don’t understand why a global disable wouldn’t be an option.

@macgenie I could have sworn the global option used to be there, not that I'm surprised they would remove it. 'tis a good point about the manual option, though, since I think people who go beyond just one or two retweets tend to go all-in and end up using it multiple times each day.

@macgenie I use Tweetbot and used a filter to just hide all the retweets on my timeline.
