Improve Twitter by:

  • Always using the Latest Tweets (chronological) timeline - automatically switches you back when Twitter decides they'd rather you were on the "Home" (algorithmic) timeline because "engagement"
  • Moving retweets to a separate Retweets timeline, or hiding them entirely
  • Hiding "Who to follow" / "Follow some Topics" etc. sections in the timeline
  • Removing sidebar content (Trends, Who to follow, sidefooter)
  • Removing some less-used links from the primary nav (Explore, Bookmarks, Links)
  • Using the site's base font size and normal font weight in the primary nav to make it less distracting (using your selected font size from the Display / Customize your view dialog)

These features all default to enabled and can be configured by editing the config object at the top of the script.
