i'm putting 5 stars because this allowed me to keep 2018 twitter layout and not have to stand the ugly mobile app for web version for a whole year before you stopped supporting it and I almost never used web twitter again after that when I used to use it all the time. It was amazing and I wish it would come back because the other old twitter layout extension is twitter's 2015 layout which isn't as good.
