Remove algorithmic content from Twitter, hide news & trends, control which shared tweets appear on your timeline, and improve the UI
Remove algorithmic content:
– Keeps you on the Latest Tweets (chronological) timeline, automatically switching you back if Twitter tries to move you to the "Home" (algorithmic) timeline
– Hides the new timeline tabs if you have them
– Hide "Who to follow", "Follow some Topics" etc. in the timeline
– Hide "What's happening", "Topics to follow" etc. in the sidebar
– Hide "More Tweets" when linked to a tweet
– Hide algorithmic tweets based on likes, replies, lists, and suggested topics in the "Home" timeline, if you use it
– Hide Explore page contents
Control which tweets shared by people you follow appear on your timeline:
– Move Retweets to a separate timeline (default setting), or hide them entirely
– Move Quote Tweets and replies to them to a separate timeline, or hide them entirely (off by default)
– Hide tweets quoting accounts you've blocked or muted
– Mute quoting of specific tweets - adds a "Mute this conversation" menu item to Quote Tweets in the timeline
UI improvements:
– Disable use of the Chirp font if you don't like it
– Uninvert the Follow and Following buttons to make them less jarring
– Choice of monochrome or themed (classic) styling for uninverted buttons
– Use the site's normal text font style in the primary navigation menu on desktop to make it less distracting
– Fast blocking – skips the confirm dialog when you try to block an account
– Add a new item to the "More" menu which takes you straight to the "Add muted word" page
– When viewing a tweet's Quote Tweets, hide the quoted tweet to make more room for quotes
Hide UI items you don't use:
– Hide navigation items you don't use, and other distracting screen elements such as the account switcher and Messages drawer
– Hide items you don't use in the "More" menu
Experiments:
Optional features you can try, to see how they change how you perceive and use Twitter:
– Hide metrics: hide like, retweet, quote tweet and follower counts
– Reduced interaction mode: hide the action bar under tweets – replies are now the only means of interacting
– Full-width timeline content: hide the sidebar and let timeline content go full-width
– Verified accounts: highlight tweets by – or interacting with – verified accounts, or hide them to simulate the aftermath of the July 2020 Twitter hacks
- Disable the home timeline: find yourself wasting too much time on Twitter? Try preventing use of the home timeline, going to Notifications or Messages by default instead
