It slows down everything when I'm on a certain computer or my phone. It's also completely useless and should be optional.. so how do I remove it? Is it in the options somewhere? I also have adblock plus for firefox, if theres a feature there that can remove it.

The least innovative, but still functional way would be to right-click on it, while/before it finishes loading, and press "Stop" so it doesn't finish.

It is pretty annoying, but I didn't know it slowed people down lol....

How come it affects you when you're on the phone? The mobile version of macinsiders doesn't have the stupid twitter feeds

With addblock plus there is an option that says "select elements to hide" and in the mobile cerium there is no tweets
