TWIFY

You follow people on social media for a reason, but they don’t always post content that you want to read. While we cannot control what others share—that is their freedom—we should have the ability to decide what we see. Our time and attention are limited, and we must use them wisely. Additionally, some individuals leverage their influence to shape discussions on sensitive topics, making it even more important for us to filter the content that reaches us. TWIFY (short for That’s Why I Follow You) is a Chrome extension designed to help you take control of your social media experience. It uses large language models (LLMs) to analyze posts and determine whether they align with your interests, ensuring that your feed remains relevant and meaningful. In the extension settings, you can specify why you followed someone, and TWIFY will use an LLM to evaluate their posts, dimming those that may not be of interest to you. By giving you the power to manage what influences you, TWIFY promotes attention equity, ensuring that you decide what deserves your focus. Platform supported: - X (former Twitter)
