X Hidden Replies Revealer

A small browser extension that shows replies hidden by the author on X/Twitter.

Hidden replies appear inline in the conversation with a subtle amber tint.

Features

• Reveals author-hidden replies inline in the normal X/Twitter conversation.
• Shows a Hidden pill when you open a hidden reply directly.
• Lets you disable hidden-reply merging for your own posts or selected accounts.
