    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!

    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)
