How do you blacklist commenters?
- arjie 5mo agoI just wrote a Chrome extension to do it: https://overmod.org/ https://overmod.org/ But tbh this is trivial to write these days since the boilerplate can be written by the machines and you can just write the core functionality to make it work. I only have it public because I'm hoping others will also block users who misinform as a habit and I can subscribe to their lists and crib off their work without having to do it myself. If you want to save yourself the first 15 min of prompting, just point Claude Code at this https://github.com/TechnologyBrotherhood/overmod-extension https://github.com/TechnologyBrotherhood/overmod-extension and ask it to implement the local blocking functionality.
- whimsicalism 5mo agoi was going to follow up with the same thought - it would be nice to have shareable blocklists à la bluesky
- arjie 5mo agoYeah, I suppose a nice fully featured protocol would use something decentralized, but that extension currently has them on my site. e.g. Another user made this one and I subscribe to it too: https://overmod.org/lists/view?pk=0STtY8mc3j6Pyaaf3YeKGHkcBK8MTMkUEwhVv78J5yk https://overmod.org/lists/view?pk=0STtY8mc3j6Pyaaf3YeKGHkcBK... I separate mine by a bunch of categories which might be a bit complicated, but I was hoping perhaps people might not care about some of the categories https://wiki.roshangeorge.dev/w/Overmod#My_Stuff https://wiki.roshangeorge.dev/w/Overmod#My_Stuff e.g. I don't like endless repetitious "but corporations" stuff and I also don't like "but they sell your data" repetitively but maybe others want to block category A but not category B. I think that wasn't a sound idea, though. Either people trust you to block for them as well or they don't.
