Twitter - clickable links to images

Linkifies all images in Twitter streams. These links point to the :orig version while the stream content is modified to use the :small variant to increase performance. ":orig" images opened in tabs can be downloaded using a valid file name (removes " orig.jpg" suffix) simply by clicking on the image.

As of 2018-12-30. See the latest version.

This script modifies Twitter image posts:

  • All image posts link to their high-res ":orig" version (easily accessible by opening in a new tab via "middle-mouse" click)
  • Twitter images opened in a new tab allow downloading the ":orig" version by clicking on the image (using a valid file name stripped of the superfluous " orig.jpg" suffix)
  • The image thumbnails are modified to use ":small" version to improve performance and reduce network traffic (no noticeable quality degradation)

The script is presented AS-IS with no guarantees - it works well for me, it might not for you... feedback is welcome
