if I set config.retweets = 'ignore', it still hides retweets.

When Tweak New Twitter is enabled playing video keeps stopping on Twitter on Chrome MacOS

(didn't notice this was on git at first, i earlier left an identical post on the google chrome webstore lmao)

I don't know if this is viable, but I'd really like an option to hide tweets. As in, like, from a dropdown box, make it so I don't see a particular tweet ever again. Also, I want to do this to my own tweets without deleting them. I really hate how they go to the top of my latest tweets. If I'm in a particularly abusive argument, there's cases where my tweets is important to leave up, but seeing it can make me relive the argument in my head again and it's upsetting to me. So how about it, is that possible to implement potentially? Thanks.

See #34

But why?

I've been completely unable to hide the More Tweets section in tweets that were opened in a new tab from TweetDeck using the Chrome extension and userscript versions. My main browser is the current stable version of Vivaldi, but using the same extension in Chrome allows More Tweets to not render every time.

1- Sometimes I take screenshot tweets on Twitter. When I want to take screenshot, I zoom in page (like 150%), inspect profile picture and tweet's photo and update strings to original (sometimes it can be larger image) URL from default URL on in tweets and use screenshot tool on inspect to take screenshot.

For example this tweet.

• Default Profil Picture's Photo: https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1272811597531152384/ExrnCNWI_normal.jpg
• Original Profil Picture's Photo: https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1272811597531152384/ExrnCNWI.jpg
• Default Tweet's Photo: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E7upafuXoAo4cQF?format=jpg&name=small
• Original Tweet's Photo: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E7upafuXoAo4cQF?format=jpg&name=orig

Normally this method is very time wasting and tough. But with you can take screenshot hd-quality with this method. Maybe you can make practice this.

2 - There is an account called tweetstamp.org that archiving and generating new URL for tweets on Twitter. Previously I could see tweetstamp link to use tweet ID [for example: https://twitter.com/Canan_Kaftanci/status/1423187867367526401 >> https://tweetstamp.org/1423187867367526401] using a browser extension called Swift Selection Search with a search URL [https://tweetstamp.org/{searchTerms}] But this site give errors with this method.

If you don't want to see these errors, you need to write "@tweet_stamp stamp" on writing tweet bar. I don't like this writing things. Maybe you can make practice. Because this archiving and new link generating site is useful on Twitter. Your add-on is about Twitter.

Suggestion from a user on Twitter

tweak new twitter should have an option to disable seeing quote tweets

It would be very nice to be able to hide "likes" from feed. Likes are very annoying. I think people are lazy and like tweets to bookmark them. It is anyway not interesting to see what others liked.

Enabling option to hide Messages Drawer disables media autoplay (gifs and video).
Tested both userscript and chrome extension.
When option is disabled, autoplay works normally.

Twitter's built-in responsive design wants to collapse the account switcher down to just your profile picture, but we've hidden it unconditionally.

The child list of the account switcher button element gets changed when it expands/collapses, we can use this to watch for and react (ho ho) to it:

Collapsed:

Expanded:

The feed doesn't immediately change over to Latest Tweets, but only opens a dropdown with the button that does.
Better than nothing, but ideally it would take that step automatically.

When you get a notification the <title> changes with a notification count, e.g. Latest Tweets / Twitter → (1) Latest Tweets / Twitter

This triggers a re-setup as if you'd navigated and breaks current page detection.

The fake "Retweets" timeline added by Tweak New Twitter uses and relies on the page title being "Retweets", so it needs to be changed to something else, perhaps "Timeline Retweets"?

It's not working anymore. None of the options are working

Currently, if you make any changes to the extension options, the entire configuration is saved, including whatever the defaults were.

This means if we release a version with a new option and someone changes any option after updating, if a change is made to the new option's default value in a subsequent release (as just happened in v2.3.2), they won't pick it up.

Instead, we should keep the configuration changes people have made in a separate object, which gets merged on top of the defaults to display the options page, and save only their changes.

Just creating an issue to dump some initial investigation into

Adding a separate timeline header

1. Find the <h2> containing the list title
2. Create a clone of its parent as a next sibling to hold the fake timeline heading
3. Make the following style changes on their shared parent:

   flex-direction: row;
   align-items: center;
   justify-content: space-between;

Do people ever use the Share button next to the menu button? Nothing on the menu it pops up seems that useful:

Listen for config changes in the content script and apply/un-apply them (when possible) on the fly.

Just a nice little detail, and it would make for a good demonstration of what the extension does.

Request from the 🍊🕸:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23879926

This seems to do the trick…

document.querySelector('[data-testid="primaryColumn"]').style.maxWidth = 'none'
document.querySelector('[data-testid="primaryColumn"]').firstElementChild.lastElementChild.style.maxWidth = 'none'
document.querySelector('[data-testid="sidebarColumn"]').style.display = 'none'

…but it makes media tweets absolutely massive:

The theme colour is a fiddly to get at (IndexedDB: localforage > keyvaluepairs > device:rweb.settings >themeColor, then you'd have to figure out how to dig the appropriate style out of <style id="react-native-web">.sheet.cssRules) so might just be easiest to grab it from the computed style of the big Tweet button (getComputedStyle(document.querySelector('a[data-testid="SideNav_NewTweet_Button"]')).backgroundColor) and figure out when we need to observe it for changes.

Twitter has disabled the option to use latest tweets outside of their mobile apps. Wonder if there's a way to bring it back.

This search works for the time being https://twitter.com/search?q=filter%3Afollows%20-filter%3Areplies&src=typed_query&f=live

bookmarks etc is not hided if twitter language is not english

This is my first time working with a browser extension, and I want to contribute to it.
As this is my first time, I don't know entirely how to get this to work with Firefox when building, so I try to go about it normally like any other Javascript project.
I run npm install, installs everything needed for web-ext, then I run npm build. I drop it into my extensions page in Firefox developer edition, but when I drop in the artifact it says the addon is corrupt. This doesn't make much sense to me considering I haven't made any changes to the script at all

Looks like we're missing the initial value that gets set on <html>.style somehow

Both the normal and mobile twitter websites are identical, could you add mobile.twitter.com as one of the sites the extension runs on.

Needs an update urgently.

And yes, tested both userscript and addon.

Managed to somewhat clean it up by adding the following rules to my uBlock Origin:

twitter.com##[role="tablist"]
twitter.com##[role="heading"][aria-level="2"]:has-text(Topics to follow):xpath(../../..)
twitter.com##[href="/i/topics/picker/home"][role="link"]:xpath(../..)

This allows you to have you a timeline consisting only of original and quote tweets, but still go look at what people are Retweeting if you want to.

This basically needs to tell the script to switch to hiding everything on the timeline that isn't a retweet, then we're hoping that the windowing of rendered tweets will keep loading tweets until we have a screenful.

Seeing as there's lots of JSDoc comments for setting types, I would like to suggest that the project switches to Typescript.
I'm currently trying to poke around the project and VSCode just doesn't autofill things for me for variables and such

It sticks out way too much

Exactly the same as was in the sidebar, this gives 3+ profiles to follow, but inline in the main feed.

The feed stays with a dim color while everything else is on blackout. When I disable tweak-new-twitter, the feed goes back to blackout.

Before:

After:

Using the current, non-fully-compatible version in Firefox for Android Nightly

To try the current, non-fully-compatible version, install Firefox for Android Nightly and follow these instructions, using the following details to add a Custom Add-on collection:

• 13844640
• Android-Collection

You'll now be able to install Tweak New Twitter

Some of the settings for the desktop version break the mobile version, so you'll have to use these settings:

With this, you'll have a mobile version of Twitter which stays on Latest Tweets and lets you hide Retweets and Quote Tweets.

What needs to be fixed

• Removing stuff from the sidebar doesn't apply on mobile and when enabled, it currently hides the search item from the button bar
• Mobile needs its own version of hiding unwanted/unused navigation items, as navigation is now in a pop-out menu
• We need to find somewhere else to put the control for accessing the separated tweets timeline
• The method used to create a pinned tweet when viewing Quote Tweets doesn't work (but it does still hide the duplicates)
• The options page needs to feature detect and only show relevant options for the current platform

New stuff

• Hide the "Open app" link when viewing an individual tweet

Any other feature requests? Put them down below 👇

For a low-noise timeline with more text, fewer images.

With New Twitter, you no longer move off the timeline and lose your place if you click on an image (unless it decides it's time to randomly load more tweets, like it does).

• Single images
• 2-4 images
• GIFs
• Other video (if not handled the same way as GIFs)
• Images/video in metadata from a linked URL

Stylus is a non-spying-on you fork of the Stylish extension which is handy for tinkering with a site's CSS in a persistent manner.

As reported here:

https://twitter.com/josephfelldown/status/1414361564975706119

Discovered that the "Tweak New Twitter" extension I use to make this awful place more bearable removes the log out button, which is ironic.

This would reduce it to just the menu ellipsis instead:

header[role="banner"] > div > div > div > div:last-child {
  flex-shrink: 1 !important;
  align-items: end !important;
}
[data-testid="SideNav_AccountSwitcher_Button"] > div:first-child,
[data-testid="SideNav_AccountSwitcher_Button"] > div:first-child + div {
  display: none;
}

Should we still offer the option to completely hide it, or just make this what the "Hide account switcher (in footer)" setting does?

Aha, found them in case you're curious: Facebook Container and Privacy Badger both cause that to break--though all the other settings work fine. I don't know enough about how extensions interact to guess why.

Example of navigating to twitter then clicking around different sections with v1.2:

Can we get in quick enough with a MutationObserver to target and hide these elements before they flash?

Would love to have just "Relevant people" show on the sidebar with the rest disabled as an option.

Add support to use middle click on the entire tweet, also on quoted tweets, so you can open the tweets into a new tab.
ctrl + normal click works, but it would be a huge improvement to new twitter, if this was possible.

Thanks for the great script / addon.

There's this absolutely weird page with the tweet you're interested in collapsed at the top, then a block with a couple replies, and then "more tweets". Because engagement, apparently. Someone probably got a bonus or even a promotion for this. Anyway, the thread you're interested in is hidden behind an additional click. It shouldn't be. Would be nice to have an option to skip this superfluous page automatically.

Artist's impression:

When choosing to have Verified accounts set to Hide, it also hides tweets of those who are not verified, who are quote retweeting the tweet of someone who's verified.

This extension has more customizable options on Twitter's interface. So is this possible to add hide option for “Translate Tweet” and “Like Quote Tweets Retweets” section on next updates?

When you click the Retweets we manually change it to Retweets / Twitter - looking at a photo changes the <title> back to Latest Tweets / Twitter, which triggers re-processing of the page.

How about we check if the current URL ends with /photos/{number} and the last page you were on was Retweets?

Just noticed "Who to follow" is always three tweets down in the primary column instead of being in the sidebar when viewing someone's profile.

There's also a similarly styled "Promoted tweet" section now (or maybe it was always there - uBlock Origin was hiding it)

I currently use uBlock Origin to block Likes & Retweets as Tweak New Twitter only allows the disabling of all metrics.
Would be nice to have a tick-box of likes, retweets, replies, and followers/following all separate.
