Static Posts for Twitter – Embed x.com Tweets without an iframe

Beskrivelse

The standard Tweet, or Post (or Xeet?), loads in 500kb of front end JavaScript, tracking cookies, and lots of noise. This plugin avoids all of that by pre-rendering the entire Tweet statically. Say goodbye to bulky Tweets!

Features

  • Embed a Tweet/Post/Xeet without an iframe
  • Save 500kb of page load
  • No Twitter/X cookies, tracking, JavaScript, etc
  • Static – Twitter/X changes won’t affect your site
  • Dark/light auto mode

Vercel

The Tweets are parsed on a server hosted on Vercel. Using this service, and thus connecting to their servers, you agree to their privacy policy and terms.

NOTE: Your frontend does not rely on any api calls, and if the Vercel api shuts down tomorrow, your site will not be affected in any way.

FAQ

Self host the API?

Coming soon, but you will be able to self host the backend API, which requires a basic Node.JS server. Open an issue on GitHub if you are interested in this.

Persist Dark mode?

If you add data-theme="light" (or ‘dark’) anywhere above the block (for example, on the body tag), the block will respect that theme. There is also an override “per block” if needed

At least so far this plugin does a much better job than the default “Twitter” block which can’t even be bothered to rename itself to X. At least Xeet has the X in there. My only slight worry is that there have not been any updates in a while but maybe it has not needed any.
