Chances are that you are a twitter user and while not using your mobile phone you are using the official twitter.com website. If not, you’re in luck, because recently they added quite a nasty feature that you can’t toggle on or off — the in-line media display.
Here’s a quick and clean hack to get rid of this nonsense.
- Install Stylish for Firefox or for Chromium.
- Restart your browser
- Click on the icon → Write new style → for twitter.com…
- Add
div.tweet > div.content > div.js-media-container { display: none !important; }
before the last bracket so that it looks similar to this:
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml); @-moz-document domain("twitter.com") { div.tweet > div.content > div.js-media-container { display: none !important; } }
- Click Save. The icon should turn and you should immediately be able to see the metamorphosis
Much better now, isn’t it? Enjoy your new and improved twitter on a sunny day over a beach! :)
