Describe the bug
Once u uninstall / remove the extension (Old twitter) from your browser to use the normal UI, the original site gets broken until you reinstall / re-enable the extension, softlocking myself into the old twitter theme.

To Reproduce
(using operaGX). install the extension trough chrome store, Use it normally and tweet something, uninstall the extension while leaving a window open using the extension, reload the site, now the original URL with the original site says :
"Something went wrong, but don’t fret — let’s give it another shot."
(a button saying "try again" will appear, which once clicked will reload the site with no changes)
(after doing this, the site will be broken no matter what browser i use)
(Account used in phone will remain normal with no issue)

Expected behavior
Twitter site should open normally when the extension on my browser is uninstalled.

i just tried uninstalling the extension then restarting my pc, but still not working.
plus i try to use some of the other extensions that do the same, such as "good twitter"
and keeps appearing that broken site.

Weird, I tested it on Opera, Firefox and Chrome and never had any issues with uninstalling it, everything goes back to normal twitter just after.
The thing is that extensions don't really have any control of what happens after you uninstall extension (they can only set uninstall url, that's it)
If you said it happens only in Opera GX and twitter works in other browsers I'd say that it's a weird bug in Opera's code, but you're saying it happens in all browsers, so I really have no idea why. I have zero control over what happens after uninstallation

You can show I guess
Btw extensions cant even change files on computer unless it prompts to change specific folder
