Info

New TweetDeck was renamed to XPro and now requires Blue subscription. But currently you can still set tweetdeck_version=legacy cookie to get old TweetDeck back without any subscriptions required. First thought would be just to set that cookie when you install extension, but I'm 100% sure this will most likely stop working soon when they find out. So I've made this extension to actually replace files with my own hosted ones. This way it will work even if they completely remove old TweetDeck from their servers. Update: literally day after, they removed access to old tweetdeck via cookie

Transparent disclaimer

This extension will use files hosted on my own server. This technically grants me access to add anything I want to TweetDeck code any time I want. I don't have any interest in doing anything malicious, but still, use at your own risk.
You might be asking, why not just include all files within extension itself (like OldTwitter does), well I tried and it's impossible due to use of eval / new Function in TweetDeck code. Manifest v3 extensions are not allowed to use eval / new Function because of stupid new policies.
