The smaller stack exchanges are a really wonderful source of content I never thought I needed to know. I always check out the "hot network questions" side panel when I land on stack overflow and almost always find something interesting.
- nsxwolf 9y agoI always thought they were about "networking" as in IT so they'd really confuse me.
- pkamb 9y agoI always get sucked in to the addicting Hot Network Questions as well when I land on Stack Overflow, which is why I need to block the entire sidebar so that I can get some work done! https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hide-hot-network-question/jommfgnflipjalbpbgcfghdpoeijpoab?hl=en https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hide-hot-network-q...
- dufferzafar 9y agoI do this too! Firefox - uBlock's "Block Element" feature.
- Anthony-G 9y agoI also block the Hot Network Questions on Stack Exchange sites while at work – though not when using my home profile. As a Firefox user, I simply added the following lines to my `userContent.css`: @-moz-document domain("stackoverflow.com"), domain("superuser.com"), domain("serverfault.com"), domain("askubuntu.com"), domain("stackexchange.com") { #hot-network-questions { display: none; } }
