"More Tweets" is back #565

We should extend the options which hides "Discover more" tweets to also hide these - why do they have both? 🤔

You only get "More Tweets" if you navigate to a Tweet via an external link, e.g.:

https://x.com/raccoonhourly/status/1791959469942849833

If you navigate to that Tweet from within Twitter instead (e.g. via a Quote Tweet of it), it shows you "Discover more", which we can already hide.

I think this is functionality left over from when Twitter used to show the thread under focused tweets to non-logged-in users

The problem with trying to hide this is the "More Tweets" text comes from the server, so it's not included in Twitter's client-side locale data, which means I'd have to manually source translations for every language Twitter supports by switching languages.

I would really appreciate it if this could be added, it's the one addictive thing that still sneaks through the firewall of the extension. Thanks for the great work, by the way, it's a godsend!
