TwitterViewer Redirect

TwitterViewer Redirect is a small Firefox extension that sends supported X (formerly Twitter) and Twitter pages to TwitterViewer.net, a free viewer for public content. Instead of hitting a login wall, you land directly on the post, profile, or hashtag you wanted to read.

What gets redirected
- Posts: x.com/<handle>/status/<id> (including photo/video suffixes and /i/status/ links)
- Profiles: x.com/<handle>
- Hashtags: x.com/hashtag/<tag>

It works with x.com and twitter.com, including www. and mobile. subdomains. The full original URL, query string, and hash are preserved, so the correct content opens. Pages like Home, Explore, Search, Messages, and sign-in are intentionally left untouched.

How it works
The extension uses Firefox's webRequest API to inspect top-level page navigations only. When a URL matches a supported post/profile/hashtag pattern, it is rewritten to TwitterViewer.net's share endpoint. Images, scripts, API calls, and iframes are never touched, and TwitterViewer.net itself is never redirected, so there are no redirect loops.

Privacy
No personal data is collected, stored, or transmitted. No analytics, no tracking, no remote code. The extension only rewrites navigation URLs; it never reads page contents. It declares data_collection_permissions: { required: ["none"] }.

Requirements
Firefox 140 or newer (Firefox for Android 142+). Free and open source. Not affiliated with X Corp or TwitterViewer.net.
