Twitter – How to get the Twitter followers not to appear on the timeline

twitter

I have just joined Twitter and when I follow people, I get all their tweets in my timeline. I have been to other people's pages and I can see only what they have tweeted in their timeline but they are following people.

Why aren't their follower's tweets in their timeline? (Some have got thousands of followers.) I can't keep up!

So, how are they doing it?

This is part of the Twitter experience.

Your home timeline, the page you see when you log in, will contain tweets from your own account along with all of those you are following and other tweets that have been retweeted (if you haven't turned that off).

This is found here:

https://twitter.com/

When you view a profile's timeline you only see tweets from them and their retweets. You'll know you're on a profile timeline when the URL is like:

https://twitter.com/{username}

How they keep up depends on how they use it and various apps they might use with Twitter.

Some people follow thousands but don't really check their timeline and only look at any mentions toward them. Others might create a list or two with a few tweeters and only check that, cutting down on the noise.
