What happened
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Have https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/tweak-new-twitter/ installed and options not work right. Disabling Eight Dollars fixes it.

Expected behavior
I expect these 2 addons to work together.

This would be challenging to do - Twitter Web App doesn't expose an extensible API we can hook into to add our modifications, so we have to resort to hacks with the DOM mutations. Those are not very composable on top of other code that may do the same.

We would have to do a proper integration with Tweak New Twitter extension or come up with some sort of set of extensibility standards that is followed across all extensions (not just ours) that modify Twitter to make all extensions work well together.

@privacyguy123 please share your thoughts also on what's the best way forward you think might be here. As of moment, I am leaning on the side of closing this as WONTFIX.

Cheers.
