started using RSS feeds a few months ago, they're still widely supported and there are JSON scrapers for those sites that don't. The idea of "reading N accounts" to get some info or some algorithmic soup of "popular stuff i tangentially show interest in" doesn't even compare to curated RSS feeds organized into groups. The unpopular, rare and obscure stuff can't compete with algorithmically optimal SEO-friendly hype-tagged social media junk in the "common prole-feed" of giant websites.
