Only one part of X (Twitter) a problem?
You do not have to block all of it. These parts can be turned off on their own, for free, while the rest of the site keeps working.

Blocking x (twitter): FAQ
How do I block X (Twitter) on Chrome or Firefox?
Install Blockodile and add x.com and twitter.com to a blocklist, or install the X (Twitter) list from the Marketplace. Both domains are blocked in one step.
Does this block both x.com and twitter.com?
Yes. The list includes both domains, so old twitter.com links redirect to the blocked page too.
Can I still post but not scroll?
Partly. Switch on the free X For You section and the "For you" tab itself is hidden, so the algorithmic timeline stops being one click away -- posting and your Following timeline are untouched. It hides the way in rather than blocking: X keeps the selected tab in the page instead of the address, so there is no separate address to block.
