Personally, the lack of an algorithm, and the control over what I see (be it through follows, hashtags, or follows of follows) leaves me fairly unconcerned with the overall cruft that'll undoubtedly arrive as the network grows. Twitter isn't a cesspool because it's big; it's a cesspool because you get shoveled garbage you don't want to see designed specifically to instill division, and you get blocked from seeing stuff you want to see because it's deemed to be wrongthink.
But yes, there's something nice about being able to just throw on the "latest Global" feed and still mostly seeing stuff that at the very least doesn't make you hate humanity.
