Twitch Legacy Chat: Restoring Classic Twitch Chat Experience

Twitch Legacy Chat is a Chrome extension customized for Twitch users who prefer the classic, 'legacy' version of Twitch chat. The extension restores the previous chat version by employing iFrames, as Twitch's new site layout has introduced certain changes which some users find uncomfortable or confusing. Embrace the nostalgia with Twitch Legacy Chat and enjoy chatting as you used to!
