Control Panel for Twitter

Gives you more control over Twitter and adds missing features and UI improvements

Control Panel for Twitter is a powerful browser extension designed to enhance your Twitter experience by giving you more control over your timeline and improving the user interface. It defaults your Home timeline to the reverse-chronological "Following" feed, hiding the algorithmic "For you" timeline, allowing you to see only tweets from people you follow. The extension offers extensive customization options including hiding retweets, quote tweets, muting options, and removing distractions like inline prompts and "Who to follow" suggestions.

Beyond timeline customization, the extension includes UI improvements such as preventing video autoplay on mobile, fast blocking, hiding retweets in profiles, and restoring classic Twitter features obscured by recent updates. It also offers options to remove algorithmic content, reduce engagement distractions by hiding metrics and action bars, and hide UI elements you don't use, like the bookmark and share buttons or Explore page contents. With its ability to tweak layout density, font styles, and disable certain features, Control Panel for Twitter creates a cleaner, less distracting Twitter experience tailored to your preferences.

Wonderful. I can choose what I want and what I don't want to see so it makes my life so much less stressful and more peaceful on Twitter/X.

The features are fantastic, but if you scroll down Twitter far enough, the entire website goes into "spasms" and breaks down until you turn the extension off.
