murder VS unclutter

You can send a Tweet URL that looks something like this to the bot: https://twitter.com//status/

4. X

I went to https://twitter.com/ and only got the login page. You can see individual posts without an account, but most other read-only functionality is hidden behind the login wall.

It is this ublock origin custom rules

    news.ycombinator.com##tr.athing:has(a[href^="https://twitter.com"]) + tr + tr.spacer

I don’t know that the rename is going to stick. The logo is still an X in blackboard bold, but https://x.com/ links now redirect to https://twitter.com/.

Case in point.

Also, an easy work around is to take a twitter url and replace twitter.com with nitter.net to see the tweet and all replies.

no a filter for uBO (I do not think it is possible) but I really like this extension: https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter

Other browsers can use the uncluttered extension.

There already is crowdsourcing of broken page reports: https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter/issues?q=is%3Aissue+...

And twitter.com is a special case: https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter/issues/570

I'm working on those, but it's never going to be perfect unfortunately.

I'm looking into this: https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter/issues/661

It all started with a r/chrome post a few months ago, and since then we've added many improvements to our GitHub project.

Hey! This is a reader mode browser extension I built that hides noisy page elements rather than extracting and re-rendering only the page text. The idea is to not make all articles look the same [0], have them still render graphs, and ideally to work in more cases.

There are a few "tricks": patching the site CSSOM to apply simpler mobile styles even at desktop width, detecting the likely main text & removing its non-text siblings, blocklists for classnames that contain words like "sidebar", and testing this on a few hundred popular sites.

I got carried away and also added a dark mode, page outlines, private annotations & inline Hacker News comments.

The last feature works by parsing every top-level HN comment with a quote in it (formatted with > or "") within a few minutes, and anchoring these quotes in the related article HTML. So when you click a link on HN you’ll see the parts people are talking about while reading. [1]

The code is all on GitHub!

[0] Screenshots comparing it to the Firefox reader mode: https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter/blob/main/docs/compa...

[1] It's fun to try this on some of the "HN classics" that got 30+ quote comments over the years. The list at hn.lindylearn.io/best shows the number of “annotations” an article has beneath its title.

You can also contribute to the existing extension for this: https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter

There are a few "tricks": patching the site CSSOM to apply simpler mobile styles even at desktop width, cleaning up parents of DOM text nodes, blocklists for class names that contain words like "sidebar", plus manual CSS patches for popular sites.
