(Preview of what's going to be v3.0.0 in the first App Store version)
New
- Replaced the extension icon with an ibis, better known in Australia as a "bin chicken" - sticking stuff on top of the Twitter icon (or something non-official which looks very, very like it) is against the Twitter Brand Guidelines
- New "Home timeline" and 'Reduce "engagement"' sections in the options page - relevant options have been moved into these, including "Full-width timeline" and "Reduced interaction mode", which have been moved out of the Experiments section
- Expanded support for Blue check replacement to more sections of the app:
- Following/follower lists
- Communities
- Twitter Circle
- Bookmarks
- User typeahead dropdowns when composing a Tweet
- Community pages can now go full-width
- Automatically switch from Verified to All in Notifications if Twitter forced you back onto Verified - this has started happening in the mobile web version
Changed
- When you mute a Quote Tweet, emoji and linebreaks will now be preserved in the "Muted tweets" section in the options
- Moved options for hiding algorithmic timeline content into the Experiments section, as they can cause performance issues by hiding large numbers of tweets
Fixed
- Fixed Views not being hidden under tweets on the largest device widths supported by Twitter's mobile view
- Fixed user profile page detection to be independent of display language - it wasn't working for many non-English display languages
- Fixed Blue check replacement in various places:
- on "user liked/retweeted" notifications (again)
- in the user profile header and verified badge popup on mobile
- in search result dropdowns in Search/Explore on mobile
- Fixed some cases where hiding Blue checks would hide more than it should, e.g. the entire user name in "like" notifications
- Fixed Blue subscribers with locked accounts having the locked account icon replaced too
- Fixed "What's happening" appearing in the sidebar on the Suggested Communities page
- Fixed tabs on other pages setting the title to "Home" on mobile if you navigate from Home to another tabbed page when the Retweets tab is being displayed
- Fixed the sticky hover state on the Retweets tab on mobile
- Fixed the Retweets tab showing tweets from the last tab you had open, instead of from Following
Removed
- Removed all code related to the old "Sparkle button" timeline, which was continuing to cause problems for some people
