In case anyone wants to fully automate entering these in. I took @j6k4m8's snippet and expanded on it.

  1. Visit https://twitter.com/settings/muted_keywords
  2. Open your browser's dev tools (note: this does work in Chrome)
  3. Paste the following code in:
const delayMs = 500; // change this if you feel like its running too fast

const keywords = `ActivityTweet
generic_activity_highlights
generic_activity_momentsbreaking
RankedOrganicTweet
suggest_activity
suggest_activity_feed
suggest_activity_highlights
suggest_activity_tweet
suggest_grouped_tweet_hashtag
suggest_pyle_tweet
suggest_ranked_organic_tweet
suggest_ranked_timeline_tweet
suggest_recap
suggest_recycled_tweet
suggest_recycled_tweet_inline
suggest_sc_tweet
suggest_timeline_tweet
suggest_who_to_follow
suggestactivitytweet
suggestpyletweet
suggestrecycledtweet_inline`.split(/\W+/);

const nativeInputValueSetter = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(window.HTMLInputElement.prototype, "value").set;

const addMutedKeyword = keyword => {
  const input = document.querySelector("[name='keyword']");
  nativeInputValueSetter.call(input, keyword);
  input.dispatchEvent(new Event('input', { bubbles: true }));
  document.querySelector("[data-testid='settingsDetailSave']").click();
}

const delay = () => {
  return new Promise(res => setTimeout(res, delayMs));
};

keywords.reduce(async (prev, keyword) => {
  await prev;
  document.querySelector("a[href='/settings/add_muted_keyword']").click();
  await delay();
  addMutedKeyword(keyword);
  return delay();
}, Promise.resolve());

Awesome.. Thank you.

Would be great to have an explanation about what this is doing.

@heygambo, to simplify... that code add to your twitter muted list. That's it nothing more. You can read it BTW. It's there

@shashemi-m

I couldn't get this code to work on chrome, so I go to dev tools and paste it? But where, edit html and just paste?

@BenBE

BenBE commented Sep 14, 2020

Use by pasting in the Console tab of the debug tools, while on the appropriate site in your Twitter settings.

@BenBE Thank you! Is this still working? Seems like some people are saying it doesn't work anymore.

Can confirm this still works, but i'd love to know which to add to get rid of those newly added topic following recommendations on the timeline.

@schuster
Copy link

This appears to have stopped working for me in the last couple of weeks. That, or there are new keywords that need to get added to the list. Any ideas on how to fix it? And any thoughts on how to keep this updated over time? I've seen similar lists posted on various websites (e.g. https://howtodotechystuff.wordpress.com/2019/07/23/make-twitter-useable-again/), but I have no idea how people are determining the set of topics.

@lando2319

I feel like something has changed, in recent days this list has been completely ineffective for me.

Does anyone have a way to capture new IDs? I tried inspecting element and wasn't able to see an ID

@devashishp

Hi! Thank you for this gist, has been super useful to me. Does anyone know if there's a phrase I can mute to stop seeing tweets from "Suggested Topics"?

Can someone tell me how to insert it in Chrome step by step? Thank you so much.

Try "RT @" without quote and all likes and Retweet will not appear on your timeline.

Expanded on @jakebellacera's script to make it work for my browser. Visit https://twitter.com/settings/add_muted_keyword, open your browser's javascript console, and paste the following script in:

const delayMs = 1000; // change this if you feel like its running too fast

const keywords = `ActivityTweet

const nativeInputValueSetter = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(window.HTMLInputElement.prototype, "value").set;

const addMutedKeyword = keyword => {
  const input = document.querySelector("[name='keyword']");
  nativeInputValueSetter.call(input, keyword);
  input.dispatchEvent(new Event('input', { bubbles: true }));
  document.querySelector("[data-testid='settingsDetailSave']").click();
}

const delay = () => {
  return new Promise(res => setTimeout(res, delayMs));
};

keywords.reduce(async (prev, keyword) => {
  await prev;
  addMutedKeyword(keyword);
  await delay();
  document.querySelector('[aria-label="Add muted word or phrase"]').click();
  return delay();

I never got this working again after it stopped working for me over a year ago, but I found a better option for me: you can switch to chronological ordering in the mobile app by tapping the star icon in the upper-right, then tapping "switch to latest tweets". The chronological mode doesn't show any of the suggested tweets, likes, etc., which is exactly what I want.

Very helpful @schuster, this is exactly what I wanted as well. Thanks! 🙇

Wish to know what each of these actually do. I've seen some of em remove replies from the same user who made the main tweet, but I'm unsure which. Would be nice to know what each one did. Or if this are some that are missing too.
