It does its job well and I really enjoyed using Twitter like it's the old days: however be WARNED that using this extension will risk your account to be suspended. I literally just got my 6-year old account suspended because I kept using it. The silver lining is that I'm basically free from the Twitter shackles and can just move on with my life, but damn. I had a lot of memories saved in that account

Currently giving the error "There was an error in initializing security header generator: Module ID not found". Creator on Github said that it's been fixed so I think the Firefox version may need to be updated as well.
