How to hide X trends and "Who to follow" on Chrome

The right-hand sidebar on X is a menu of new rabbit holes: trending topics, suggested accounts and live events. Hiding it means a quick search stays quick.
Pro Included in ZenTab Pro, with a 7-day free trial

What disappears

  • What's happening and trending topics
  • "Who to follow" suggestions

What still works

  • The search box
  • Your timeline (unless you hide that too)
  • Posting and DMs

Hide X trends and "Who to follow" in four steps

  1. 1Add ZenTab to Chrome. It's free, and your first 7 days include Pro, so you can try this straight away.
  2. 2Open the ZenTab dashboard and go to Feed Eraser.
  3. 3In the X / Twitter card, switch on Hide trends and "Who to follow".
  4. 4That's it. It applies instantly, even to X (Twitter) tabs that are already open.

Switch it off again any time in the same place. Feed Eraser runs only in your browser: nothing is sent to X (Twitter) or to ZenTab.

Rather block X (Twitter) completely?

If you don't need X (Twitter) at all during the day, blocking the whole site is simpler. See how to block X (Twitter) on Chrome, on a schedule or with a daily time limit.

Frequently asked questions

Is the search box still there?

Yes. Only the trends and suggestions underneath it are hidden.

Should I hide the timeline too?

If the timeline is your main time sink, yes. Many people turn on both and use X only to post and reply.
