Twitter Demetricator hides all the metrics on Twitter. Follower, like, and retweet counts all disappear. The result lets you try out Twitter without the numbers, to see what happens when you can no longer judge yourself or others in metric terms.

User Reviews
Pros
- Effectively hides Twitter metrics like follower counts and view counts, reducing fixation and social comparison.
- Provides a more peaceful and less stressful Twitter experience by removing social validation indicators.
- Well-executed and creative add-on that fulfills a unique need for users wanting to avoid clout and e-peen comparisons.
- Generally well-liked by creators as it reduces notification dread and metric anxiety.
- Easy to use and does what it promises effectively.
Cons
- The add-on has stopped working correctly as of mid-2024 due to changes in Twitter, and updates are lacking.
- Does not provide options or toggles to selectively hide specific metrics; hides all by default, limiting user customization.
- Fails to hide some metrics such as bookmark counts and shows/hides reply icons incorrectly after recent Twitter UI changes.
- Sometimes hides retweet information unintentionally, which users may not want.
- Does not hide follower counts in direct messages, which is a requested feature.

Is Twitter Demetricator Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Twitter Demetricator requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
