It's not an unrealistic observation given that Twitter generates over half of its income in the US and almost a third of its daily active users is American. (https://www.statista.com/statistics/242606/number-of-active-...). The app is quite small and geographically centralized, with about 200 million daily active users. If its popularity in the US drops off with the already strained advertiser situation twitter is probably going to be in some trouble.
pushing anyone that has differing views from the platform is leaving it as another right wing echo chamber.
It's already far from the bastion of information flow than it used to be, but still retains some visibility because of it's history and brand name. This value is dropping fast - I'm not the person that you are asking, but I strongly suspect by the time the next election rolls around, it's simply going to be irrelevant.
The list of most retweeted tweets is telling - one from 2024, other than that, they are all from years ago,

As someone who uses Twitter to only follow Japanese people in Japan speaking Japanese, nothing was ever forced into my feed under the old management, it was all related Japanese hobby stuff, I saw zero English and zero politics.
Now it's super obvious that every n-th algorithmic entry has to be some blue check content to push their paid engagement numbers, and it's always some US brain rot, the algorithmic feed is completely useless for discovery now.

It is funny that you say that. I never received random tweets from the previous leadership while Twitter inserts Elon Musk tweets in my feed more times than the people I follow. Only right wing nuts will think Twitter is getting better.
I think if you don't see the (often overt) bias of an outlet's media that you consume, the likeliest reason is that 1) you're not aware of current social and political topics or 2) the content already aligns with your politics and/or worldview.
It sounds like Elon Musk and perceived right wing bias are what inflame you. Perhaps that's how others felt about that short period under the old management when they were also not neutrally politically aligned?
I made it very clear in my post: Twitter never forced the leadership content directly into people's feed. Musk uses Twitter as his personal social network and to advance his political agenda.
Now you by the other hand is OK with that, because you pretty much prefer every person on twitter to read and follow you political agenda. And that's why Twitter became a extreme right wing echo-chamber.
What are you talking about? All "progressives" except for some software engineers are still there. Example (it does not get more progressive than that):
