Update 1.1.1: Extension broke when using default BG color due to Twitter update, now fixed.
Github source: https://github.com/FlashTrance/Twitter-Timeline-Fixer
By default, Twitter shows you a variety of Tweets that do not directly pertain to the people you are following. From showing what the users you follow "Like", to popping up with a Tweet letting you know that some random person you've never talked to in your life has just commented on a post of someone you follow, Twitter's timeline can certainly be a messy, frustrating experience at times.
And the worst part is, there's no way to turn these Tweets off... until now, that is...
Twitter Timeline Fixer is an extension that allows you to toggle these random Tweets on and off. You can show/hide 5 types of Tweets:
1. "Liked" - Tweets that users you follow have liked
2. "Reply" - Replies by random people on posts of users you follow
3. "Followed By" - Tweets by people who are followed by users you follow, but who you don't follow personally (confounding, I know)
4. "Follow Topic" - Tweets recommending you to follow a topic, like "Drawing" or "Cycling"
5. "Retweets" - Tweets that users you follow have retweeted
In addition, I've added some granularity to the "Retweets" function. Many people don't want to hide all their retweets, but we know those certain users who just retweet wacky stuff constantly... for these cases, Twitter Timeline Fixer comes with a "Retweet Filter", which allows you to specify the users who's Retweets you want to hide.
NOTE: You must refresh your Twitter page after installing this extension for it to take effect. If that doesn't work, please try restarting your browser.

- (2023-09-23) Christopher McEwen: Does what it says, though it won't save my settings for some reason, so every time I reload the browser I have to re-enable "Hide Retweets". If it would save the settings it'd be 5 stars.

- (2022-03-30) FRC: I would give it a 6/5 if I could. Finally after so much time I found an extension that got rid of the horrid "topic" tweets that appeared on the timeline. Thank you!!

- (2021-06-25) Jake Achée: This did exactly what I wanted: Gave me back a chronologically linear timeline of tweets from people I follow. Perfect execution.

Can you remove the "XY follows YZ" suggestion too? - (2021-03-09, v:1.0.0) Metamayto: Stopped Working
The extension worked very well for the first few months, but stopped working all of a sudden. Might've been an update on Twitter's end that prevented the extension from working? That's only a guess though.
