ti always makes a difference. got one for my bike, and never looked back. Question you need to ask yourself is how far down the ti/weight weenie rabbit hole do you want to go? And why?
I replaced seatpost, saddle, pedals, handlebar, crankset and rear triangle for weight and usage purposes.
It's lighter, but still heavy (relatively) but I'm getting close to the £ a gram region, and I don't have the cash for that, for weight savings which I'm probably not going to be able to tell the difference with. So I'm leaving as is

I'm willing to dig a bit - at least until it gets stupid. It's a bike I ride and carry a fair bit.
I've shaved weight on the usuals though - "superlight" front wheel, folding tyres, pedals, saddle, my custom crankset (MegaEvo 386 BB, Cannondale Si cranks and SRAM chainring). I've also added weight though with light fixtures, mudguard support etc.
Ti Seatpost is defo on my agenda, but I want it to be the exact same length as the standard. Most I've seen are longer.

Super wise words, much appreciated!

Folks IYHO do you think a Ti seatpost would make much difference on my b75? Or probably a waste of money seeing as I live in a ground floor flat…. Or am I just wanting to update my bike as I’m bored, ( I guess this is both a practical and psychological question)
