  I work in AR, and am inspired to think how an app like Clearspace could help make AR something that enhances our mental wellness instead of degrades it. I feel like the stereotypical expectation is that AR will result in our views being cluttered by advertisements and digital content at all times. But I wonder, could "Clearspace AR" filter out the billboard over 101 I can see from my apartment? Could it help protect me from distracting, negative, plainly unhealthy ad and outrage-driven media content around me every day? What I'm really hoping is, one day you can filter People Magazine out of the grocery store checkout line ;)

  Would you mind open sourcing the browser extensions? Something about installing closed source browser extensions with broad permissions like "Read and change your data on many / all websites" has always bothered me. Too many have been bought up and then later injected with malware / ads / etc but that's totally opaque to the end user...

    I would also like to, e.g., add more sites, say HN, beyond the currently supported list [^1]. [^1]: Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit

    And there appear to be some bugs in the Chrome extension... I just installed it and tested the 5 toggles for a few minutes, and found most of them only seem to work on the homepage of the site? Is that expected? I mostly use these sites not by going to the homepage first, so I think blocking only one door into a house is an invalid assumption for blocking the site. Also Facebook blocking doesn't seem to be working at all.
