This is fascinating.

I just threw together some absolutely atrocious javascript to make this "verified accounts can't tweet" a feature.

Fire up the console, and run:

```

javascript

var verified = document.querySelectorAll('[aria-label="Verified account"]');

for (var i = 0; i < verified.length; i++) {

verified[i].parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.

parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.innerHTML = ""

}

```

At least for me, this deletes the DOM nodes for all tweets from verified users in my timeline.

I don't want to permanently unfollow all verified users, but having an option to hide all activity associated with those accounts in my timeline? That'd be nice.

If anyone who actually knows what they're doing wants to suggest a smarter solution, or make a chrome plugin that does just this, I'd be forever grateful!

Nice. Thinking about it, also deleting the whole right column (trending, who to follow) would really make Twitter a happier place.

I love this thread. Personally I use Twitter to follow people who write interesting tweets about programming, but the trending sidebar tries very hard to make anybody anxious.

The creator of https://github.com/insin/tweak-new-twitter dropped by and brought this tool to my attention.

It's everything I wanted, works perfectly, has plugins for Chrome and Firefox.

Check it out! Might be exactly what you need.
