My Top Tweeters of 2022

This is a list of 250 Tweeters I have most enjoyed during 2022. This is the ninth year I have compiled this list. I follow about 4400 people on Twitter.

Anyway, these are the ones who have entertained, informed, educated, annoyed and, most of all, made me laugh most this year. It’s not meant to be a list of best Twitter feeds on the internet – it’s just the ones I particularly enjoy or take notice of.

If I follow you but you’re not on the list, don’t feel bad. There’s always next year! The fact that I follow you in the first place means I find you interesting!

But let's start off with my...
