Based on these tweets, I want to write a bookmarklet that at least removes the s= and t= parameters from Twitter URLs, maybe even all parameters (TODO: figure out if there are useful Twitter URL parameters first):
Even Jack Dorsey didn’t know they were introduced when he was still Twitter CEO. From the tweets below:
- The
s parameter seems to have to have to do with both the kind of sharing and the type of client used.
- The
t parameter could correlate with the user ID.
There is a sort of bookmarklet below which goes through an external web-site (search for “unfurl”), but I want to do it purely client-side.

The basic options for logging an HTML Element using JavaScript are for instance described in [Wayback/Archive] google chrome – How can I log an HTML element as a JavaScript object? – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive] Ben Flynn for asking and [Wayback/Archive] Mathias Bynens for answering)):
Use console.dir:
var element = document.documentElement; // or any other element
console.log(element); // logs the expandable <html>…</html>
console.dir(element); // logs the element’s properties and values
Both log all html or all properties even though often these are enough (most via [Wayback/Archive] Element – Web APIs | MDN):

I wish I had known this ages ago: [Wayback/Archive] javascript – Chrome debugging – break on next click event – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive] D.R. for asking and [Wayback/Archive] Konrad Dzwinel for answering):
What you are looking for are [Wayback/Archive] ‘Event Listener Breakpoints‘ on the Sources tab. These breakpoints are triggered whenever any event listener, that listens for chosen event, is fired. You will find them in the Sources tab. In your case, expand ‘Mouse’ category and choose ‘Click’.

Edit: I scheduled this post a long time ago, but it likely won’t work any more because of Space Karen demolsing Twitter. So for now, view this post as a how historically we had nice things on Twitter.
When writing this, the fork [Wayback/Archive] woluxwolu/twint works and the original [Wayback/Archive] twintproject/twint: An advanced Twitter scraping & OSINT tool written in Python that doesn’t use Twitter’s API, allowing you to scrape a user’s followers, following, Tweets and more while evading most API limitations. does not.
See these tweets in Dutch (Google Translate on them works well):

[Wayback/Archive] Delete (very) old tweets obtained from a twitter archive comments:
# Largely copied from http://www.mathewinkson.com/2015/03/delete-old-tweets-selectively-using-python-and-tweepy
# However, Mathew's script cannot delete tweets older than something like a year (these tweets are not available from the twitter API)
# This script is a complement on first use, to delete old tweets. It uses your twitter archive to find tweets' ids to delete
# How to use it :
# - download and extract your twitter archive (tweet.js will contain all your tweets with dates and ids)
# - put this script in the extracted directory
# - complete the secrets to access twitter's API on your behalf and, possibly, modify days_to_keep
# - delete the few junk characters at the beginning of tweet.js, until the first '[' (it crashed my json parser)
# - review the script !!!! It has not been thoroughly tested, it may have some unexpected behaviors...
# - run this script
# - forget this script, you can now use Mathew's script for your future deletions

[Wayback/Archive] Anil on Twitter: “@captions_please @jazzthefraz ah sorry the bot didn’t run earlier because of a bug. Should be fixed now.”
