Pros
- Effectively removes unwanted Twitter features such as "What's going on", vanity metrics, and clutter, improving user focus.
- Helps reduce overstimulation on Twitter, making the experience feel cleaner and less overwhelming.
- Developer is responsive and actively maintains the add-on, addressing user issues promptly.
- Works as advertised for most functions and stays unobtrusive during use.
- Helps users focus on content without distractions from trends, promoted tweets, and suggestions.
Cons
- The "hide retweets" feature does not work as intended, with retweets still visible on profiles.
- Promoted tweets are often not blocked, especially outside of English language interfaces, leading to persistent ads.
- Some features like hiding "Trends for you", "Who to follow", and topics have performance issues or inconsistencies.
- The add-on does not work on Firefox for Android, limiting on-the-go use.
- Recent updates caused the sidebar to hide more than intended, removing search box and follow info temporarily.
