Auto FxTwitter

A simple Chrome extension that seamlessly converts twitter.com/x.com to fxtwitter.com when copying links via the share button. Useful when you want to share the post with preview (e.g. on Discord).

Tip

You can change the replacing domain (default: fxtwitter.com) by clicking the extension icon in the toolbar. For example, you can change it to fixupx.com or vxtwitter.com.

Important

This extension only works by clicking the share button.
It does not convert links when you copy it from the address bar manually, as it is a limitation of browser extensions for security reasons.

Installation

Note

This extension is planned to be published on the Chrome Web Store, but it is not there yet.

This extension is currently under review at Microsoft Edge Add-ons, it will be published soon.

  • Load the extension manually:

    1. Download the latest release from here.
    2. Install the extension with the .crx file.

Tested on Opera GX. However, this method does not work on some browsers, including Chrome, Edge, and more.
