Changes

  • Added an option to redirect from x.com to twitter.com
    • If you're logged out of twitter.com, you will be redirected to the login page to avoid an infinite redirection loop
    • Note: this redirect will only work for as a long as Twitter supports the ?mx=1 query parameter they added as part of the migration to x.com
  • Added automatically closing the new Premium upsell modal which sometimes appears after submitting a new Tweet on desktop
  • Added an option to hide the main Compose Tweet button
  • Added a Custom CSS option to the Experiments section
  • Added display of the version number you're using to the options page
  • Fixed the option for defaulting "Sort replies by"
    • Note: on mobile, Twitter appear to have broken their own UI for changing sorting, so if you use this option you won't be able to change reply sorting while looking at a Tweet thread
  • Fixed hiding the "Edit" upsell in the menu on your own recent Tweets

Availability

This version is available for the following browsers:

Firefox and Firefox for Android
