its fun that on twitter there are
retweets : a feature that boosts a certain post onto the followers' timelines
likes : a feature that is supposed to represent liking a post, except it also works like retweets but has a chance of not retweeting
you can go into someone's profile and disable retweets, so surely you would only see their posts and nothing they retweet?
of course not
you will still see everything they liked, which is basically unreliable retweets that you can't hide

They surely could do that. Technically that should be less of a challenge than the attention- and surveillance-driven approach they decided to follow for commercial reasons
