Calm Twitter

This extension hides trending information from twitter timelines to make your mind calm.

Calm Twitter is a Chrome extension designed to reduce noise and distractions on your Twitter timeline. By hiding trending topics, tweet engagement counts like replies, retweets, likes, bookmarks, views, and recommendations such as "Who to Follow," it creates a tranquil browsing environment. It also removes follower and following counts to minimize distractions and shows a subtle "Calm" label next to the Twitter logo as a reminder of your focused experience.

This lightweight extension only requires permission to save your settings and allows easy toggling of hiding or showing these elements. Its open-source code is available on GitHub, ensuring transparency and trust. Calm Twitter is perfect for users seeking a more peaceful, focused time on Twitter without the usual overload of social signals and trending information.

平素よりお世話になっております。いつもおだやかTwitterのおかげで気持ちよくTwitterを見ることができています。 2025/6/27朝頃より、左右とも色々な表示が増え、いいねRTの数等も表示されるようになっています。 おそらく本家側で何か変更があったためと思います。お手数ですが対処についてお考え頂ければ幸いです。

いいね数やrt数は非表示にできましたが、自分のプロフィール画面に飛ぶとフォロー・フォロワー数が表示されてしまうのでそこを直していただけるとありがたい

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Calm Twitter requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Calm Twitter has earned a good reputation and can be trusted.
