could you please make it work with the new twitter? there is no option to toggle the old version anymore, nor is there an option to enable this functionality in the settings. you say the new twitter includes similar functionality. it does not. (and while we're at it, and option to always use 'latest tweets' instead of the annoying 'home' would be fantastic - all algorithms suck)

Thank you for the feedback! I have now uploaded a new version that supports the new and the old twitter design.

    Love this add-on ever since I installed it a couple of years ago and it worked perfectly. However, one peculiar "feature" with the new version is that when I'm scrolling down the page with the mouse Twitter will jump back to the top as soon as a new tweet comes in. That does not happen if I use the down arrow key or the PageDown key on the keyboard.

    11:10 am CDT: Thanks for the quick response! I was using 2.1.0. I updated it to 2.1.1 and it appears to be working as it should. Thanks again!

    EDIT 8/23: If Twitter included it, it isn't working. I have to reload or click on home to get a refresh on the page.

    Hello! Thank you for the feedback!

    That was a bug that is supposed to be fixed now. Does it still happen to you with the latest version 2.1.1? If so, what OS are you using?

    Thanks again!

    Edit: Awesome, glad it's working fine now.

    Edit 2: It looks like Twitter decided to include my add-on's functionality in their site, so we no longer need my add-on (sad but maybe true). Can you please confirm if this is true? Thank you.

    Edit 8/26: Thanks for your confirmation and help. I'll leave my extension as is then, sounds like it's still useful. Greetings.

    Hello, I'm sorry the add-on is not working for you.

    Do you mind sharing what's wrong so we can take a look and fix it?

    Thanks

    This worked great in the older version of the Twitter UI which I still use. Since the last update, this no longer functions in the legacy UI. I am not sure if this is due to the loss of reverse functionality or another add-on I use to revert the legacy UI has changed some page formatting.

    If using the new UI, it appears that I do not get the "load new tweets" button to auto update unless the browser window is selected (multiple monitors) but I think this is a Twitter UI issue, not the add-on.

    Thank you for the feedback! You are correct, the new twitter UI requires you to be "focused" on the twitter tab for it to load new tweets. I'm not sure why they do that. I personally don't like the new UI but that's a different story.

    What's interesting is that you are still able to use the old version of twitter. I honestly thought it was gone for good for all users, which is why I updated the add-on to support the new version only.

    Based on this, I will try to find a way of detecting what version of twitter you are using, and make the add-on behave differently based on that.

    Again thanks for the feedback!

    Edit: The new version that supports the old and new design is up, can you let me know if it works? thanks!

    ページのトップにいるときだけ、最新のツイートを自動で読み込んでくれます。
    いちいち、「新しいツイート○件を見る」をクリックする必要がないので、快適なTwitterライフが送れます。

    It only loads the latest tweets automatically when you're at the top of the page.
    This addon is very helpful to have a comfortable Twitter life! Thank you very much!
