Egolatron

Self-like detector for tweets!

This Chrome extension detects tweets that have been liked by their own authors, and highlights them with shiny self-love medals! Built for fun by @daniguardiolame. Source: github.com/DaniGuardiola/egolatron # It stops working randomly, fix it you lazy f%#k! It's not my fault, it's Twitter and their rate-limiting policy. # It doesn't work if I'm not logged in! Yep. Can't do anything about it. Sorry. ## How to look under the hood Other than reading the code itself, you can enable three debugging options that I baked in. To do this, you need to open the devtools console, and switch to the extension content ("Egolatron" instead of "top" in the dropdown). Then, execute the following: - For detailed logs: `_egolatron.setLog(true)` - For detailed stats: `_egolatron.setStats(true)` - For debug styles: `_egolatron.setDebug(true)` To disable, pass `false` instead. Enabling debug styles will also enable logs and stats, overriding their individual settings. The debug styles will show a blue border for tweets that are being analyzed, green for tweets confirmed to not be 'self-liked' and red for 'self-liked' tweets (this will replace the fancy styles with the animated medal). ## Where to find the code Just check the "extension/content-script.js" file in the GitHub repo (link at the top). ## How to thank me for this incredible and necessary contribution to humanity Star the repo on GitHub, follow me on Twitter (@daniguardiolame) and check out my website: daniguardiola.me ## Changelog - 1.3: Fixed false positives and rate-limit bugs, improved medal design. - 1.2: Disabled debug mode, which I left enabled by mistake in 1.1. - 1.1: Fixed bearerToken grabber and improved tweet ID and username detection. - 1.0: Initial version.
