Code to copy

// Switch the home feed from "For you" to "Following" automatically
function pickFollowing() {
  if (location.pathname !== '/' && !/^\/\?/.test(location.pathname + location.search)) return;
  const tabs = document.querySelectorAll('[role="tab"], [role="menuitem"]');
  for (const t of tabs) {
    const label = (t.textContent || '').trim().toLowerCase();
    if ((label === 'following' || label === 'obserwowani' || label === 'abonnements') &&
        t.getAttribute('aria-selected') !== 'true') {
      t.click();
      return;
    }
  }
}
let done = false;
function tryOnce() { if (!done) { pickFollowing(); } }
tryOnce();
const obs = new MutationObserver(() => { if (!done) tryOnce(); });
obs.observe(document.documentElement, { childList: true, subtree: true });
setTimeout(() => { done = true; obs.disconnect(); }, 8000);
