Remove Verified Tweets

Hides all tweets from verified users
What is Remove Verified Tweets?
Remove Verified Tweets is a Chrome extension that effectively hides all tweets from verified users on Twitter. This extension is created in response to recent changes made by Elon Musk to the platform, such as the removal of verified status for Legacy Verified accounts and the For You page no longer displaying non-verified tweets. By using this extension, users can filter out tweets from verified accounts and avoid the pay-to-win aspect of Twitter's growth model.

Extension summary

Due to Elon's recent changes to Twitter, I have made this extension in response to the following two changes to the platform:

  1. On April 1st, Legacy Verified accounts will lose their verified status. This means that users with a checkmark are guaranteed to not be notable figures and instead have just paid for Twitter Blue.
  2. On April 15th, The For You page will no longer(?) display non-verified tweets. This effectively makes the entire platform pay to win as you must pay to grow your following.

Also, it was mentioned somewhere that users who have Twitter Blue will rank higher than users without it.

I plan to fix this by effectively removing all users who pay for Twitter Blue via extensions.
