This Chrome extension exports a copy of your own X (formerly Twitter) profile timeline (posts and their attached media) so you can keep it on your own computer. It exists to help you own and archive data you already created.
While you are signed in to X and actively running an export, the extension
reads, from the pages you visit on x.com:
- The text of your own posts/replies shown on your profile timeline.
- Timestamps and permalinks for those entries.
- Media (images/video) attached to those entries, fetched from X's content
servers (
pbs.twimg.com,video.twimg.com).
It does not read other people's private data, direct messages, or anything outside your own profile timeline.
- Everything is processed locally, in your browser.
- The result is assembled into a ZIP file and saved to your computer via the browser's normal download mechanism.
- No data is transmitted to the extension's author or to any third-party server. There is no analytics, no tracking, no telemetry, no account, and no remote storage.
- The extension does not sell, share, or transfer any user data.

The resulting ZIP is saved through the browser's normal in-page download
