"Sort replies by" has moved to a button in the focused Tweet header

[insin]

• There doesn't appear to be a way to check the current sort without clicking the new button
• This takes a while to load in

is anyone working on it ? i'm considering. it's so annoying doing manually every time

If you're not already viewing a thread, the new control doesn't appear until you've scrolled a bit, so this feature can't really work any more

[arye321]

window.scrollTo(0, 1000);  

setTimeout(function() {
    window.scrollTo(0, 0); 
}, 1);  

this shows the button

edit: changed 320 to 1000, 320 didnt work on some other page

I know its scuffed but it works,

window.scrollTo(0, 1000);
setTimeout(function() {
  window.scrollTo(0, 0);

}, 1);

setTimeout(function() {
  document.querySelector('div[aria-label="Home timeline"]').querySelector('button[aria-haspopup="menu"]').click()

}, 100);
setTimeout(function() {
  Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('span')).find(span => span.textContent.trim() === "Likes").click()

}, 200);

edit: ok i made a firefox addon, scuffed code but it works i think

Hey there, I've created a sorting addon that can sort smoothly while browsing, the only catch is it relies on the manifest v2 framework, I tried to replicate this with a userscript but there are now some limitations I couldn't do it. The idea is simple, intercept requests before they load on Twitter then replace the "Ranking" of replies.
