Summary

In an October 2023 update to X, headlines/titles on URLs shared on posts were removed. This Chrome extension adds back in those titles so you can get less confused on what's an image and what's a URL.

Once you install this Chrome extension, there's no further action you need to do. Titles will automatically appear in your X feed.

The code is open source under GPL-3.0 license. You can fork it, make improvements, or do whatever else you please: https://github.com/kevinyun/show-titles-in-twitter-links
