Twitter Redux

I've recently started using twitter again. Sigh... I'm still angry that twitter is so much worse than it used to be, but... Well... Whatever. I'm using twitter again.

I did have to reconstruct the filter I use to block image previews, and other objectionable content, in twitter. The basic recipe is from a page by patrixmyth, but I added one more line at the end that also blocks the hideous new tweets bar.

twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .media twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .multi-photos twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-macaw-cards-iframe-container twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-media-container twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-old-media-container twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-adaptive-media-container twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-new-items-bar-container twitter.com##DIV.new-tweets-bar

I'm using uBlock Origin for filtering.

I'm posting this mainly so I can find it again if I need it.
