How to turn off email notifications from twitter
To be clear, the way this page is set up also creates the overcapacity error if you manually uncheck each line without using the script.
How to turn off email notifications from twitter code#
On Github, the original code has a timer set of 100, but upon testing and reading the comments I had more success with fewer timeouts by upping it to 1000.Īs you can see in our video, I was already quite a ways into running it (by this time I had to restart it for the fourth time) before getting a "Twitter is over capacity." error. You may have to repeat this process four or five times.Wait a few minutes and then restart the script.Manually stop the script process by reloading the page,." but it will look like it is still unchecking list items, it isn't. Be aware that after a while the page will say "Twitter is over capacity.Var timer=1000 document.querySelectorAll( "div > input:checked" ).forEach((interest) => ) Where you see a new line with > paste the following code and hit the Enter key to run it.You can also right-click anywhere on the page and select " Inspect" On your keyboard hit the F12 key, which will open dev tools in Edge, Chrome and Firefox.Once you are on that page you will see a long list of checked interests, they will all be enabled unless you have already manually disabled some Interests. Then click Settings & Privacy > Privacy & Safety > Ad Preferences > Interests.Topics initially launched back at the end of 2019 as a means to opt into topics of interest it plugs into "Interests", which is a tracking feature that tries to make sense of your behavior when interacting with Twitter and then builds a profile of what you're most likely interested in, which in turn then suggests those interests as Topics to follow.Īnyway, there is a way to turn them off thanks to some code uploaded to Github that you can run in the browser dev tools console (which was spotted via Reddit), but it requires a lot of patience, and you will also be forced to uncheck new "Interests", or should I say "Topic Suggestions", that get added to the list every once in a while. In fact, the whole Topic Suggestions feature is annoying, I keep dismissing them and more come each day, whatever happened to just letting users sign up to lists or search for interests themselves? huh? As a Portsmouth FC fan that follows the official club Twitter handle as well as several people affiliated with Pompey (including the owner of the club) it makes me wonder why Twitter is suggesting a football club I clearly have no interest in.
Intrigued, I went and had a look and saw that Twitter was suggesting for me to follow topics on "Manchester United FC". One morning while checking out a link to a tweet directly on Twitter, it showed I had an unread notification, but this was not so on Tweeten.
