| 2024-12-04 |  | | en | perfect <3 |
| 2024-10-20 |  | | en | Awesome extension, does as advertised. Would be great if there wasn't a split-second pause before images got hidden but maybe that is out of the dev's control. |
| 2024-07-10 |  | | en | cool |
| 2024-06-07 |  | | en | great, I wish I could have a list where certain websites are allowlisted, and everything else is blocked |
| 2024-05-20 |  | | en | It was perfect but since the last update (19 may 2024) I can't watch youtube videos when the extension is on. Edit: They corrected it pretty quickly and now you can choose to "disable videos" in the options. Good job guys ! |
| 2024-05-25 |  | | en | Works but would have loved if the images are blocked, instead of getting hidden AFTER they appear for a second. |
| 2024-05-24 |  | | en | Its pretty good. It would be better if I can watch instagram reels without seeing peoples faces and whatsapp video calls without seeing peoples faces. Maybe see like silhouettes instead. Ik that sounds arbitary but it is a text ad on... |
| 2024-02-17 |  | | en | While this extension tends to work well, it definitely isn't 100% and the worst part of it is that sometimes, at random points, a few images here and there will suddenly appear. For no real reason. Like if you're on a website, all images are grey boxes- cool, it works. But then the images (in black and white form though) may appear randomly after a while or if you click on another page or article or video on a website- then they may appear. So, the fact that it's like playing Russian roulette is why I am giving this a 1-star review. Also, video DOES tend to load, unlike advertised. |
| 2024-02-06 |  | | en | Does not block all images. It's a mixed bag. You never know what you're going to get. Don't waste your time, seriously. |
| 2024-02-05 |  | | en | The extension works so well with DuckDuckGo until I try Google that loads some images (formats). So please update and include some other formats. Thanks a lot! |
