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...
- tedmiston 3y agoI would also like to, e.g., add more sites, say HN, beyond the currently supported list [^1]. [^1]: Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit
- tedmiston 3y agoAnd 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.
