john smith (ID: 000000f40aaebfed) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/06/2023 Works exactly as described, No more doomscrolling!

Levon Ghalachyan (ID: 000000b5ddad2c75) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/07/2023 The idea is great. However, writing tweets takes a while as this extension makes the site sluggish. You'll need to write the text somewhere else and copy/paste it to twitter, otherwise the UX is poor to say the least.
