TwitterViewer Redirect
A Firefox extension that automatically opens X/Twitter posts, profiles, and hashtags in TwitterViewer.net — no pasting links, no login walls.
Firefox 140+ required. Version 1.0.1. Free, open source, no data collected.
What it does
When you visit X or Twitter in Firefox, TwitterViewer Redirect sends supported pages straight to TwitterViewer.net so you can read them without an account. It covers:
- Posts:
x.com/<handle>/status/<id>, including photo/video suffixes and/i/status/links. - Profiles:
x.com/<handle>. - Hashtags:
x.com/hashtag/<tag>.
It works on x.com and twitter.com, including www. and mobile. subdomains, and preserves your original URL, query string, and hash so the right post is opened. Navigation pages such as Home, Explore, Search, and sign-in are left alone.
Redirect examples
| You open | Extension opens |
|---|---|
| https://x.com/SpaceX/status/1925045393307627815 | https://twitterviewer.net/i/share?entry=extension&url=... |
| https://twitter.com/NASA | https://twitterviewer.net/NASA |
| https://x.com/hashtag/Formula1 | https://twitterviewer.net/i/share?entry=extension&url=... |
| https://x.com/home | Stays on X (feed page, not redirected) |
Install
- Download the extension: x-twitterviewer-redirect-1.0.1.xpi (Firefox 140 or newer).
- In Firefox, go to
about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox. - Click Load Temporary Add-on and choose the downloaded
.xpifile. - Open any supported x.com or twitter.com post, profile, or hashtag — you will be taken to TwitterViewer.net.
Note: a temporary add-on stays active for the current Firefox session. For a permanent install, the extension must be signed via Mozilla Add-ons (addons.mozilla.org) or Firefox Developer Edition used with a locally built package.

This extension collects no personal data and declares no data-collection permissions ("data_collection_permissions": { "required": ["none"] }). It runs entirely in your browser and only rewrites navigation URLs matching x.com and twitter.com — it never sees or stores the page contents.
Only top-level page navigations are redirected (types: ["main_frame"]); images, scripts, and API calls are untouched. TwitterViewer.net itself is never redirected, so there is no redirect loop.
FAQ
What is this extension?
TwitterViewer Redirect is a small Firefox extension that sends X/Twitter posts, profiles, and hashtags to TwitterViewer.net automatically, so you can view public content without signing in to X.
Which Firefox version do I need?
Firefox 140 or newer (Firefox for Android 142 or newer). This is the version family the extension targets.
Why is Home or Explore not redirected?
Those pages are app navigation, not viewable content. The extension only redirects posts, profiles, and hashtags — the same set supported by TwitterViewer.net.
Does it work on twitter.com too?
Yes. x.com and twitter.com (including www./mobile.) are both covered.
Is it free?
Yes, free and open source.
