Gets back Twitter's old design by changing the useragent string
Almost everyone agrees Twitter's new design is ugly. *Very* ugly. This add-on gets you back the old style!
It changes the UA string to IE11's and fixes the clipboard.
IMPORTANT: you HAVE to clear Twitter's cookies on install, as this is not something that can be done automatically on Chrome.
The source code can be found at: https://github.com/zaszthecroc/fix-my-twitter
Permissions:
* "https://twitter.com/*";: needed for access to the webRequest API
* "webRequest", "webRequestBlocking": needed to edit the requests' headers before sending
* "browsingData": needed to clear Twitter's cookies

- (2021-09-20) Jamie Chamberlain: Does not work because when i add the extension it says "This browser is no longer supported"
- (2021-04-23) X W: No longer works. As soon as I added the extension, I cleared cookies and reloaded the tab on which Twitter was. "This browser is no longer supported."

- (2020-07-21) JonesyJSU: Stopped Twitter from bouncing around constantly after nothing else did. Thanks!
- (2020-02-22) e v: works almost perfectly (the character counter is still just a circle, although i don't remember if they added that before they got rid of the old layout). i kind of expected twitter to have just completely removed the old layout; i'm glad they didn't, so this great extension can make it accessible again. thank you Zasz!

- (2019-09-06) ruben.: I love the extension but I was wondering if the creator could add a way to block it from being enable on mobile Twitter url (mobile.twitter.com) so I can use the bookmark feature.
- (2019-09-01) tyjr12: Does as advertised but there's a slight issue. If you click on a tweet it doesn't show the replies and all the things twitter usually does. Instead it opens the tweet on that titter's homepage. May wanna fix that but does the job otherwise
