The Old Twitter Layout extension, version 1.9.2.2, has been released for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, providing users with a nostalgic return to the classic Twitter interface from 2015. This extension is ideal for those who prefer the familiar look and feel of Twitter before significant changes were implemented under Elon Musk's ownership.
Unlike typical modifications that simply add CSS styles to the original Twitter layout, the Old Twitter Layout functions as a completely different client, essentially replacing the new Twitter interface. One of the main features of this extension is the default switch to a chronological timeline, though users have the option to revert to the algorithmic timeline via settings.
Key features of the Old Twitter Layout include:
- Comprehensive implementation of nearly all Twitter functionalities.
- Enhanced speed, with many pages loading faster than the current Twitter.
- Customizable profile link colors that sync across users of the extension.
- Options to enable or disable Twemoji and revert from stars (favorites) to hearts (likes).
- Dark mode support and removal of advertisements.
- Simplified downloading of videos and GIFs.
- Extensive hotkey support for efficient navigation and actions.
Hotkeys include general functions, such as focusing on the search bar or opening a new tweet modal, and active tweet hotkeys that allow users to interact with tweets quickly. Additionally, there are specific hotkeys for managing reply and quote boxes when they are active.
In conclusion, the Old Twitter Layout is a powerful tool for users looking to experience Twitter as it once was, complete with enhanced performance and customization options. It caters to both nostalgic users and those seeking a more streamlined Twitter experience. As social media continues to evolve, tools like this extension enable users to tailor their online interactions to their preferences
