A helpful script to automatically add some words to your "muted words" settings on Twitter

How to avoid annoying suggestions on Twitter

Just follow these steps:

const delayMs = 500; // change this if you feel like its running too fast

const keywords = `ActivityTweet
generic_activity_highlights
generic_activity_momentsbreaking
RankedOrganicTweet
suggest_activity
suggest_activity_feed
suggest_activity_highlights
suggest_activity_tweet
suggest_grouped_tweet_hashtag
suggest_pyle_tweet
suggest_ranked_organic_tweet
suggest_ranked_timeline_tweet
suggest_recap
suggest_recycled_tweet
suggest_recycled_tweet_inline
suggest_sc_tweet
suggest_timeline_tweet
suggest_who_to_follow
suggestactivitytweet
suggestpyletweet
suggestrecycledtweet_inline`.split(/\W+/);

const nativeInputValueSetter = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(window.HTMLInputElement.prototype, "value").set;

const addMutedKeyword = keyword => {
  const input = document.querySelector("[name='keyword']");
  nativeInputValueSetter.call(input, keyword);
  input.dispatchEvent(new Event('input', { bubbles: true }));
  document.querySelector("[data-testid='settingsDetailSave']").click();
}

const delay = () => {
  return new Promise(res => setTimeout(res, delayMs));
};

keywords.reduce(async (prev, keyword) => {
  await prev;
  document.querySelector("a[href='/settings/add_muted_keyword']").click();
  await delay();
  addMutedKeyword(keyword);
  return delay();
}, Promise.resolve());
