About Twitter

Twitter is a very famous social network that is widely used all over the world. You can not only use it online but also download the Twitter app on your device for further use. You can download and install the Twitter app from Microsoft Store.

The Twitter app is using the power of Progressive Web Apps (PWA). This means that it is a web-based application that acts like a native app, only taking KBs in size rather than MBs. The following screenshot is a reference:

Recently, Twitter has been switched to use the new Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser. When you install it from the Microsoft Store, you get a PWS in Microsoft Edge. After you open the Twitter app, you can see the extensions that are added to your Edge.

For example, I have added editGPT to Edge. After I open Twitter, I can click the 3-dot menu and go to Extensions to view that extension.

editGPT is used for ChatGPT. So, it is greyed out on Twitter.

Control Panel for Twitter: What It Is?

Control Panel for Twitter is a browser extension for Twitter. You can use it to reduce the amount of algorithmic content you see. On the other hand, you can also use it to control your Twitter timeline and make the UI less distracting.

When you go to the Control Panel for Twitter extension page in Chrome, you can see the following explanation:

By default, your Home timeline will be the reverse-chronological "Following" timeline, which will only contain tweets and quote tweets from the people you follow. The algorithmic "For you" timeline will be hidden, and Control Panel for Twitter will keep you on "Following" if Twitter tries to automatically take you off it. Everything is configurable, so start by opening the options popup and customizing to your liking. Changes you make in the options will be applied immediately.

Here are the main features of Control Panel for Twitter:

  • Make your Twitter always use the Latest Tweets timeline.
  • Separate Retweets into a separate column.
  • Hide Who to follow or Follow some Topics from the timeline.
  • Hide the sidebar content.
  • Hide or highlight verified accounts.
  • Hide specific navigation bar items.
