Twitter is a helpful social media platform that gets updates to your devices in real-time. However, with millions of tweets posted every day, it is difficult to get acquainted with tweets that you may be interested in.

That is why, the social media company introduced the Twitter List feature, which allows you to collect and group accounts where you have shared interests. For example, you may create a list exclusively for your hobby. You may also add a list related to your career.

Making a list on Twitter is easy, convenient, and effective. You have the option to create your list and search for people you want to add to it. Another option is to discover new lists. There are suggested lists that you can join or follow, which may be related to your interests and work.

However, some users realize that they see their Twitter accounts on someone else’s Twitter List. It may not be a problem if indeed you have the same viewpoint and interest. But, if you do not want to be associated with a specific list, you can always perform a quick check up and remove yourself from the list.
