Birdfeed

Birdfeed — you decide what the bird eats. A browser extension that gives you back control of your Twitter/X experience: less noise, more signal. Default to the chronological feed, hide the global algorithm, undo the X-era clutter, and keep only the UI you actually want to use. Open the options, flip the switches you care about, and the page updates instantly. Every feature below is a toggle. Birdfeed is an actively maintained continuation of Control Panel for Twitter by @insin, which is only getting sporadic updates. For now, all original features are preserved, and fixes ship as Twitter/X breaks things and I notice with my usage. Your timeline, your rules • Default to "Following" (chronological) • Hide "For you", "Who to follow", "Discover more", inline prompts, and the "See new Tweets" nag • Split retweets and quote tweets into their own tabs, or hide them entirely • Mute quote tweets, hide replies to blocked/muted accounts, default Search to "Latest" • Go full-width by hiding the sidebar Undo the X era • Redirect x.com → twitter.com • Replace X branding, restore the old Quote Tweet and link layouts under posts • Hide Grok, Jobs, Subscriptions, Premium upsells, blue-check replies, and view counts • Swap Premium checks for the old Twitter Blue logo, or hide them Calm the UI • Drop the Chirp font, bold/italic tweet text, and the inverted Follow button • Compact navigation, normal-weight menus, unblurred sensitive content Use X less, on purpose • Hide metrics, the compose button, notification badges, or the entire home timeline • "Reduced interaction" mode: replies are the only way to engage • Trim anything else you don't use — bookmarks, share, messages, communities, account switcher Fast blocking, an "Add muted word" shortcut, and a dozen smaller fixes are in there too. Attribution Birdfeed is built on the work of @insin and all original Control Panel for Twitter contributors. TWITTER, TWEET, and RETWEET are trademarks of Twitter Inc. or its affiliates.
