Alas, ‘OLD’ TWITTER, I knew ye well.
The old twitter is officially dead, so we’re back to the beginning on filtering out the twitter chuff and sundry.
Here’s what I’ve got so far.
————————
! Remove Right Side Trends and Who to Follow
twitter.com##.r-m611by.r-1l5qxre.css-1dbjc4n
! You MUST enable low bandwidth for these to work
! Remove video ‘placeholder’ image (still able to play video)
||pbs.twimg.com/ext_tw_video_thumb/*$image
||pbs.twimg.com/amplify_video_thumb/*?format=webp&name=tiny$image
! Remove Gif ‘placeholder’ image (still able to play gif)
||pbs.twimg.com/tweet_video_thumb/*?format=webp&name=tiny$image
! Remove blurred image preview (still able to select and view)
||pbs.twimg.com/media/*?format=webp&name=tiny$image
! Extreme option, (not using) Turns off all the photos, including profiles

Install µBlock, Adblock or Adblock Plus Extension:
Add above in custom filters
DONE!
If you have any difficulties, or need instructions for another browser, please feel free to ask me here or on Twitter. (@patrixmyth)
Have a good day!
Only tangentially related, but you want something closer to the old twitter layout, you can add the Stylish extension to chrome, also. There are many old twitter layouts available, I use this one-> https://userstyles.org/styles/185038/legacy-layout-fan-edition
(I didn’t make it. I just use it.)
Bookmarked. Will be doing this tonight. Thank you!
Happy to help.
Hi. Is there a filter(s) to hide photos and vine vids on profile pages themselves? Filters hide newsfeed so far but also looking to hide them on individual Twitter pages/profiles. Thanks for the above filters too BTW! 🙂
If I understand what you’re looking for correctly, then
adding this->
twitter.com##DIV[class=”TwitterPhoto js-media-container”]
to your custom filters should take care of photos.
I haven’t found a solution for vines yet, but when I come up with something I’ll update.
This:
twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-media-container
Seems to work very well for me. It blocks even photo previews from twitter searches (which the others couldn’t do).
As of today my current set of filters have stopped working.
Edit: Nvm, figured it out with the help of a friend.
What was your solution??
The previous set of filters were:
twitter.com###xdm_default8923_provider
twitter.com##.card2-attribution
twitter.com##.expanded-content
twitter.com##.js-tweet-details-dropdown
twitter.com##.util-text-small
twitter.com##div.is-preview
Two new filters are now necessary:
##div.js-old-media-container
##div.OldMedia-container
I love the Internet. And now I can use Twitter without having an aneurysm. Thanks!!
There internet is pretty damn rad.
And you’re welcome.
Good morning! I’m using Win10, Chrome and AdBlock Plus, and unfortunately your filters for ABP do not hide the previews for photos. I don’t know about Vines or multi-pix yet, haven’t come across them since adding filters, but the pix are still there in my TL. Any advice?
Check out the update that adds old-media div to filters 🙂 Not fully tested, but it’s best I’ve got so far.
Thank you! The only filter I personally needed to block out image preview was this one:
twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-old-media-container
It works perfectly! The image is still visible when I click on the tweet but the automatic expansion Twitter enforces is gone.
Thank you thank you thank you! 😀
Since a few days
twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .media
doesn’t hide the preview anymore.
I tried any combination of other filters. They either hide both preview and image in my timeline, or neither one of them. I can’t find a combination of filters that do hide the preview but do not hide the image when you click on the tweet.
Neonie’s 8 filters don’t show any image anymore in Firefox 41.0.2.
Any suggestions?
Analysis:
Out of those 8, Adblock shows no hits for these 4:
twitter.com###xdm_default8923_provider
twitter.com##.card2-attribution
twitter.com##.util-text-small
twitter.com##div.is-preview
So they seem useless anyway.
Both these two:
twitter.com##.expanded-content
twitter.com##.js-tweet-details-dropdown
hide retweet and favorite score. Which I don’t need to be hidden, so these filters can be removed too.
That leaves these two:
##div.js-old-media-container
##div.OldMedia-container
Whether I use one of them or both, the result in all cases is that all images are hidden, both the preview and the picture that is shown after clicking the tweet.
Note the format of the filters I listed… the not(.open) is important to preserve click to see images/media…
Looks like Twitter changed their containers again today. This is what worked for me:
twitter.com##.stream-item:not(.open) .tweet .js-adaptive-media-container
