The "display" setting is a good start. Give me options to hide the left-nav, the trend, and I'll be cool with it.

And reduce the font size from a minimum of 14 down to a minimum of, say, 6.
And for it to also reduce the menus. And for the site to actually use horizontal space. And for the site not to insert different scrollbars over the menus if you're using it in a small window. And for to let us reduce the negative space padding by 99.99999%.
Gah. It's so, so fucking bad. Twitter have the worst design team, and literally everything they have done for a decade has been garbage.
Why in the world would they give users the option to hide trending stuff?
If I want my content based on others' opinion, I go to Reddit.
What's the point to follow accounts if you're not guaranteed to see their content, and not in the prefer they intended to?

Because, if, enough numbers of users want it, seriously. Also it's still an option, not a default.
