Request to add URL parameter to make URL parameters permanent #553

Hi zadeus,

I can’t imagine going back to using the original twitter front-end as yours is so much better (not to speak of the recent authwall twitter introduced which makes completely unusable). I love nitter’s usability & speed, however, I have a very specific style preference chain that I always use:

https://nitter.net/[account]?
theme=Twitter&bidiSupport=true&infiniteScroll=false&mp4Playback=true&hlsPlayback=true&muteVideos=true

So here’s my request: If there would be an additional parameter like setPermanent=true that saves the URL parameters in the current browser settings as well (cookies, session storage, etc.), that’d save me (and others who do the same thing) some time adjusting the settings each time I click on a tweet or browse to a different account.

I looked through the issues and found this from a few years ago:

Done, it saves the theme to preferences as well although I'm not sure that's the wanted behaviour, it's an easy fix so let me know if you want that changed.

It sounds to me like that's what you wanted, too (URL params are saved as permanent settings), but unfortunately it doesn’t seem to work right now (maybe it’s just me - let me know if that’s the case).

Cheers
