Old Twitter Layout (2025)
Description from store

Extension to return old Twitter layout from 2015 (or 2018). WORKS IN 2025.
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.

Features
- Almost all of Twitter functionality is implemented
- 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)
- Custom profile link colors supported
- You can change custom profile link color and it'll appear for other extension users (priority: oldtwitter color db -> twitter color db -> default color)
- Removes all analytics and tracking from Twitter
- Track your unfollowers for free
- Search, sort and filter your followers
- Removes all ads
- Easy download of videos and GIFs
- Translate tweets without having to open them, also ability to set specific users/languages to autotranslate
- Shows why tweets were added to algorthimical timeline
- Dark mode support
- Ability to enable/disable Twemoji, disable stars (favorites) back to likes (hearts), change font, default link color and any other color in extension
- Lot of hotkeys
- Mobile support
- Custom CSS support

Thank you for helping me keep up with Twitter after all the bad changes its owner has done! You're doing great work and helping me use a functional version of this site with some bonus features I really like!
Tony Monica
Good app but updates are delayed because of Google.

Was working then all of a sudden it's now giving me an error and it's not letting twitter load, so this is getting removed immediately
Red Guy
New update broke this and now there is a error whenever I go to the site

I wish the algorithmic feed would stop showing the same things ive already seen when I switch between it and reverse chronological. Otherwise I love it and the unfollowers feature is a cool bonus
Layer Y
so I figured out than long tweet show smaller font size and short bigger honestly it irritates a little but I love it generally
Livia Mitchell

WHY IS THIS SO MUCH BETTER?????? 😭
zhuang rain
Because U are better than all dev in x.com
Jeremy Oles
This extension is a lifesaver. Brings back the old Twitter layout, runs smoother, has no ads, and is way more customizable. The chronological timeline alone makes it worth it. Feels like using Twitter back when it was actually good.
Forrest
only complaint is that it doesnt have gifs :) very nice!
Edward Contreras
This is awesome, i love it.
Kana
Would be great if the tabs on the home timeline stayed there, so you could still switch between different timelines, and you can customize which tabs to have
Dieclick
loads in 3 sec The dev is indeed a better programmer than the entire twitter website department

This is my first time writing a review on Chrome Webstore for an extension because this is simply SO GOOD! I'm not a decade old Twitter user but personally I'd agree that old Twitter DOES look better than the current Twitter UI for some reason. 9/10 Would highly recommend. Minus one point because it also removed the translation button, which I find it hard to read tweets in other languages (JP, KR, Spanish, etc.)
Octavia
shhh.... dont tell anyone i told u this... dont make it mainstream.... but this gets rid of all nsfw ID verification on twitter....
Rama Drian
I rarely leave a review but this one deserves it. This extension rocks!
Daniel Cook
this is awesome wow
BasicallyWiz
I've never enjoyed looking at twitter until I installed this extension. If only I could use this on the mobile app.
ethel
awesome
Mark Wabb
Twitter's current staff sucks
José Ayala
Works fantastic! One tip for people wanting to post gifs: Press Windows + . (The dot key), it will open a small window with emojis and a search bar that functions the same as tenor.
shia ebanks-blake
great

I love it but the rate limit is still there for me?
Ubirajara Theodoro
Is it possible to add support for Grok and gifs?

It's cool, twitters new Desktop UI is slow, buggy, generally awful, and this extension fixes a lot of that. Ctrl+F, can you believe it! My old laptop's fans not whirring to run a couple of tabs of what is ultimately a text-based website, lol. The main issue for me is that you can't post longer tweets. Longer tweets display fine, but if you want to post one yourself, the post button greys out have 280chars even if your account has longer tweets enabled. I use this feature, so for now, I'm disabling the extension

nice but it removes the gif button that lets you access tenor and stuff when replying to or posting tweets and i used that a lot so /:
niko

Note Bone

Kyle Anne
Awesome. I just can't stand the new layout always loading the videos in low quality. You're amazing!
Ömer Ziya Gencer
I love this so many customizations but i think it should dark mode as default. Gj dev thanks.
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?
Bobinski
