I would have paid for Twitter years ago if I didn’t have to see ads or recommendations, or anything else other than what I chose to follow. I swear, I’ve always wanted to see the stuff I was interested in and not all the other garbage.

These days, I only land on Twitter when I follow a link about an interesting topic. I scroll a bit and I start seeing politics, memes, posts, images, tweets, messages and all sorts of stuff that have nothing to do with the original topic I clicked on. Twitter would be pretty cool if this didn’t happen.

I currently pay for Twitter Blue; I would pay double for no ads. Hopefully that possibility is considered alongside “assigning an engineer to obfuscate the CSS”.

Wait, the Twitter subscription service doesn't remove ads already? That's wild, I guess I just assumed that it would.

Twitter Blue didn't even remove ads? What the hell is the point then?

Is there any way I could add this line to my uBlock Origin chrome extension?

Slight tangent: what is the current favorite tool to inject CSS into web pages in our browser?

Greasemonkey/ Tampermonkey ?

I use Stylus for injecting CSS: https://github.com/openstyles/stylus

From the OP, there's also StyleBot: https://stylebot.dev/
