ʎǝuoɥ (ID: 000000bad1d64e91) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/03/2023 For the past few days, I've been having issues with the extension not saving all of my changes. Specifically: the timeline width, hiding timeline tabs, and post analytics — my extension has the options selected that I want, but as soon as I refresh the Twitter page, those things revert back to default. I have to manually redo everything through the options in order to see the changes, but again, as soon as I refresh Twitter, they disappear.

Israel Wilkins (ID: 000000981d7834ab) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/02/2023 A really great extension! Some features that I wished it had like removing the verified tab, a longer search bar while on the home page, change the position of the post button (so either bottom left or bottom right, and some more. But the features it has makes up for it.

Matt MacPherson (ID: 000000ddadfa21f7) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/15/2023 Great extension! Absolute must have for browsing Twitter on desktop. Request: Can allow us to hide "Verified Organizations" in a future update? 🙏 Screenshot ➡️ https://i.imgur.com/OgXwd9O.png
