Thanks for the gist, here's one to dismiss all topics suggested by twitter on this page: https://twitter.com/YOURUSERNAME/topics

[ To completely block Twitter's subjects / topics / "You might be interested in" etc. ]
I was looking for a while to find back THIS solution, wich seems to actually be one of the most efficient to prevent this kind of annoying stuff that Twitters shows us : https://twitter.com/JonoHimself/status/1107743787856465921

This one works for me in Chrome

  1. Browse to https://twitter.com/settings/your_twitter_data/twitter_interests
  2. Open developer tools and enter following one-liner into your console
$$('input:checked').forEach( (w) => { w.click() } ); console.log('done');

this worked for me quicker then other solutions, i'm using brave browser. thanks.

Twitter is kinda dead nowadays 💀, I guess we can safely all move toward Mastodon. 👍

If you have a lot of checked interests, X will start to ignore your requests and return a 503 HTTP error if you uncheck them too fast.
Here is a script that uncheck interests every 2 seconds, just launch it and wait until the counter has reached the end.

var counter = 0;
var wait = 2000;
var interests = $$('input:checked');

interests.forEach( (w) => {
    var current = counter;
    setTimeout(() => {
        console.log(current + '/' + interests.length);
        w.click();
    }, wait * counter);
    counter++;
});

I used the code @jcambien wrote and it worked as expected, though the rate limiter was triggered after a while. Nevertheless, I waited a few minutes and reran the script, then all checkboxes were unchecked.
