If you use Dillo, with dilloc (from a git build, you need socket control support in the configure flag) and a menu command you can do it but not automatically.
Maybe w3m has some plugin to achieve the same too.

- i ll tell you an even better option, dont! - like honestly, dont. i have realized lately that x is full of ragebaiting and other algorithmic stuff to make you invested into it. - you ll never have even an ounce of mind the moment you open anything on x - good time to make a new year resolution, delete your account on x and say a permanent goodbye. they are trying hard to lure you back in

is not really the case if you know what you are looking for. I never lost my mind reading Ryan Florence, who writes on various challenging frontend topics. Or Ben Lesh, who, on occasion, would write something about observables. Or Uncle Bob, who might rant at something related to software development.
There are still people there who are fun to read.

The idea that we can independently decide what to ignore in life is a fallacy I think. Not read regularly sure, but we need to know what's written on X in some cases when it could be important for news or politics.
Is twitter the only way to get the information you need?

Somewhat related: more than half of my Firefox extensions are to fix YouTube (no shorts, no autoplay in playlists, more videos on the home page, no AI dubs or title translation (plus sponsorblock)). I don't hate it but I hate its progressive enshittification. Though that's quite different from X; while the issues with YouTube are mostly plain old enshittification, the issues I have with X are more political (thus, I…
Which ones do you use?
* No autoplay on playlists: https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/no-playlist-auto...
* No translations and AI dubs: https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/youtube-no-trans...
* No YouTube shorts: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hide-youtube-...
* More videos on the home page / smaller thumbnails: https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/youtube-tweaks/ (to be fair, it could probably replace the "No YT shorts" one)
Not sure how safe those are, but since they only require access to data for youtube domains I assume if there was a leak it would not be too bad.
I see that many of you still call it twitter. I get if it's a protest, but current X seems very unlike twitter, so I don't understand why it should be called by that name.

Xcancel is not for writing; it is for reading without needing an account. Something that used to be trivial on Twitter until a year or two before Elon bought it. And this: > you ll never have even an ounce of mind the moment you open anything on x is not really the case if you know what you are looking for.

In what way is it different? They increased the character limit? It's still a short form reddit-style message board, same as it was 3 years ago.
