Old Internet

================================================== ITEM NAME ================================================== Old Internet — Classic Twitter for X ================================================== SUMMARY (short description, max 132 chars) ================================================== Bring back classic Twitter. Old Internet reskins x.com with the timeline, profiles, and threads you remember. ================================================== CATEGORY ================================================== Social & Communication ================================================== DESCRIPTION ================================================== Remember when Twitter felt like Twitter? Old Internet brings the classic interface back to x.com. Old Internet replaces the modern X web UI with the clean, fast, retro layout you remember — the three-column home timeline, classic profiles, threaded conversations, and the look that made Twitter feel like home. FEATURES • Classic home timeline — the familiar three-column layout, restored. • Old-style profiles — header, bio, and tweets the way they used to look. • Threaded tweet view — read conversations the classic way. • Notifications, lists, bookmarks, and search — reskinned to match. • One-click toggle — flip between Old Internet and the native X UI from the toolbar popup, per tab. • Quick-switch hotkey — Alt+Ctrl+O to swap layouts instantly. • 30+ languages — the interface follows your browser language. HOW IT WORKS Old Internet runs entirely in your browser. It uses your existing X/Twitter login to render your own timeline through X's own interface — nothing is sent to any third-party server. Toggle it off anytime to return to the standard X experience. GETTING STARTED 1. Install the extension. 2. Visit x.com while logged in — your timeline loads in the Old Internet layout. 3. Click the toolbar icon to toggle between Old Internet and native X on the current tab. NOT AFFILIATED WITH X Old Internet is an independent, unofficial project.
