Description from store
Extension to return old Twitter layout from 2015 (or 2018). WORKS IN 2024!
This extension doesn't add any CSS on top of original Twitter. It's fully different client that replaces original new Twitter client, making it faster than alternatives that just add style on top of Twitter. This extension requires you to be logged in to Twitter account.
Please visit https://twitter.com/old/settings after installing to make it work just as you like. It switches to chronological timeline by default, you can switch back to algorithmical timeline in settings.
You can visit unchanged Twitter by visiting https://twitter.com?newtwitter=true.
The code is open source! Check https://github.com/dimdenGD/OldTwitter to see the code and report any issues.

- Both reverse chronological and algorithmical timelines support. And exclusive: Reverse chronological timeline with friends likes and follows (basically mix of both chrono and algo timelines)

- (2025-06-19) Ömer Ziya Gencer: I love this so many customizations but i think it should dark mode as default. Gj dev thanks.
- (2025-06-10) Gori.: hi i have been using this for like a year now, and today whenever i go to someone's profile it says rate limit exceeded. i wonder if it is something with this software or if its just twitter acting up again. can anyone help me?
- (2025-06-07) Bobinski: absoluty incredible, im disappointed in myself for not finding this sooner
- (2025-06-07) Chloe Lewis: This extension has made Twitter enjoyable again. Thank you for making this, it's really really cool!
- (2025-05-09) Alisson Carmiol: Love the old version, just wish i got to see the likes/favorites since thats still not showing. But everything is working great otherwise.
- (2025-04-30) Rohit Moses: Nice look overall, goes back to what twitter should have looked like. Also, sleek design all throughout. Althought I do have one slight problem, when looking through another twitter user's public likes/favorites it has a problem of not loading at all, Hopefully this issue is fixed soon.
- (2025-04-22) m.waalk: I can't believe my eyes! No X just Twitter! Thank you🥇

- (2025-03-07) Fatih Bulut: Man, this is awesome. I am about to cry 🥹
- (2025-03-03) Ze: It's unbelievable how good this is. Really hammers in how ungodly garbage Elon's X layout is.
- (2025-02-27) STICKERS !: this extension is absolutely awesome, after using the modern ui for a long time this one is a breath of fresh air. The old ui is soo much interesting and fun but this one has 1 major drawback that is there is no gif support however you can see other people's reply tweets with gifs but you can't attach gifs to your tweet, wth ? this feature needs to be added asap, if this is added i would easily give it a 5 star.
- (2025-02-20) vadci: Wish you can use 'Communities' with this extension.
- (2025-02-04) dTrolly: Dude, this extension is a total game-changer! You literally brought back the golden era of Twitter, and I can't thank you enough. The new UI was a mess, but now it feels like home again. Seriously, you're a legend for making this happen. Keep up the amazing work!
- (2025-01-31) Kyle Smith: This extension is great, Twitter is just getting so many useless features that it makes Twitter hard to use without needing to disable the extension at times. I would wish for a lot of the features I used this for to be in base Twitter, but I know they won't be added...
- (2025-01-12) :3c: I REALLY really love this extension but could yall add a way to use tenor gifs and post videos without having to download them? 🙏
- (2025-01-03) Eu mesmo: I only installed it to see other people's likes, but it this function doesn't anymore.
- (2025-01-01) Marae White: Locks Twitter :(
- (2024-12-15) Rataticus: It works flawlessly
- (2024-11-28) Prisile: Just got the extension works so great! I adore this :D
- (2024-11-22) Purpleboye_: Unfollowers list no longer works
- (2024-11-22) Purpleboye_: Unfollowers list no longer works
- (2024-11-22) Dylan Thomas: The only reason twitter's still usable, unfortunately it's been breaking more and more lately. Not the developer's fault.
- (2024-11-22) Arthur “Philip” Dent: broken again but worked well
- (2024-11-20) Crigence: When it works: It's the only reason why modern X/Twitter is even *usable* in my opinion. I would never willingly browse this website for a prolonged period of time without OldTwitter installed
- (2024-11-20) EQUAL2: extension isnt working again!! understandable but frustrating
- (2024-11-19) soft serve: The extension is not working. The profiles are not loading.
- (2024-11-09) Steve Atkins: This let me enjoy Twitter again. Back when it used to be semi-decent.
- (2024-11-06) Kuriomi My Melody: a.e.s.e.t.h.i.c
- (2024-10-31) Allen Awesomeness: Although I generally prefer modern design, I will say this extension makes "X" a more pleasant place and heavily invokes a comforting sense of nostalgia. This extension is probably the best way to undo not just Elon's filthy work, but also years of filth. The developer of this extension is also highly based for making the layouts import/exportable, thereby enabling community-driven themes.
- (2024-10-30) Matthew Hammer: Makes Twitter somewhat bearable when I find myself on it (which isn't often these days)
- (2024-10-28) Matthew Vogel: works pretty well, but recently the search function broke. It only displays 2-3 results, while searching on regular twitter shows hundreds
- (2024-10-27) Tim Meadows: love it, would love to see a media only option. I love a timeline of just thumbnails
- (2024-10-19) sophia maciolek: shes a beauty
- (2024-10-11) Loen L: The extension is great but I had to stop using it, my account was blocked several times due to spam and it always returned to normal when I deactivated the extension! I occasionally get this message and then they ask me to solve a captcha.

- (2024-10-10) Noah: I cannot use twitter without this extension. Twitter is extremely laggy and uses up a lot of memory when this extension makes everything easier on my old laptop. 10/10.
- (2024-10-10) Ghost Boss: Needs to have a verified followers tab like X does, other than that it is okay.
- (2024-10-03) Tora Sofya O: It's perfect. I really dislike the new ui and am not fond of the recent changes to the website, so I am glad something like this exists.
- (2024-09-26) Jamie C: The new Twitter/X is designed to make you go through a Rabbit whole of content and it gets dark, graphic and even traumatizing so quickly. This plugin bring back the old layout of Twitter to allow you to only see the content you are following, not the cesspool Twitter/X has become. It has honestly helped with my addition to the site and I can finally feel safe on Twitter again.
- (2024-09-23) fatty fatty: peak
