User Reviews
Users praise Blue Blocker for strong blocking of bots/trolls and mental-health benefits, calling it essential. However, reliability is hampered by maintenance gaps, X.com compatibility issues, and recurring errors. Notable bugs include non-working skip-retweet settings and followed-account blocking, plus a cumbersome update/install process. When it’s working, it’s powerful; when not, it’s brittle and poorly maintained. Pros
- Strong blocking of bots/tollowers and other unwanted accounts, improving the Twitter/X experience and mental health.
- Widely regarded as an essential feature that helps users navigate Twitter/X amid paid exposure and high bot activity.
- Reliable and effective when it’s functioning, with users noting smooth performance and positive results.
- Can run as a temporary add-on and still block effectively, offering flexibility in installation.
- Users describe the add-on as incredible and the best thing to happen to Twitter, underscoring its value when working.
Cons
- Long-term maintenance gap: many reports of no updates for months and ongoing errors, suggesting the project is abandoned or under-supported.
- Compatibility problems after Twitter’s switch to X.com, including outdated domain checks and slow/patched updates, leading to non-functionality for many users.
- Specific feature bugs like the "Skip blocking retweets from people I follow" setting not working and occasional blocking of followed accounts.
- Frequent errors, popups, and occasional account logout when blocking too quickly, reducing reliability.
- Cumbersome installation/update process (often requiring manual GitHub/temporary add-on installs) and slow or uncertain Mozilla approval.
Recent reviews
Work great before... now for some reason this extension decided to blocked any one who has a verified check mark. Even with user that has over 50k followers (already put the limit threshold of less than 1000 followers to be blocked, but it just doesn't work).

Good extension, but avoid use at this time.
X may have changed their automoderation detection algorithm as it's now suspending accounts for Inauthentic Behavior, as this extension uses the X API.
If you already have this extension installed, disable it for now. If you wish to continue using the extension regardless, I recommend raising the block interval significantly.

Is Blue Blocker Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Blue Blocker requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details
- High Request access to the following domains: twitter.com, x.com
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Blue Blocker has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
