User reviews

Useless now. You can't have this extension on without it breaking the site. Its not even elons fault, its literally that they removed the old API and replaced it with an actually much better one. Not like old twitter mattered anyway, since the shortcuts for certain things stopped being helpful cuz moments are annoying. Instead this should be updated to replace all "X" assets with Twitter ones and the URL. Till then, this new review stands.
