Twitter Sidebar

Displays Twitter in the Firefox sidebar.

The Twitter Sidebar Chrome extension integrates Twitter's mobile web app directly into your Firefox sidebar for instant access. Additionally, users can enable Tweetdeck within the sidebar via the add-on options, enhancing their Twitter experience by managing multiple feeds efficiently. The sidebar can be quickly toggled using the customizable keyboard shortcut Shift+Alt+U, providing a seamless browsing experience without leaving the current tab.

Note that this extension is unofficial and unaffiliated with Twitter, designed solely to enhance user convenience by embedding Twitter functionalities into the browser's sidebar. It is ideal for users who want to stay connected to Twitter while multitasking in their browser.

Extension safety

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 Sidebar does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
    Risk likelihood
    Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

    Twitter Sidebar is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
