From what I understand this isn't the case for everyone (Among my friends I am the only one who was affected by this) but Twitter for me is sorting replies in chronological order so I don't see any meaningful replies, it's all spam and memes. Would be cool if they could reverse that as well or give you an option to choose at least.
