Hide Comments Everywhere - Chrome Extension for Controlling Comments

'Hide Comments Everywhere' is a Chrome extension that allows users to block comments across the web, including Disqus, YouTube, news sites and forums. Users have the flexibility to define a personal whitelist (always allow comments) and blacklist (always block comments) that can be customized. The extension works by reading and altering data on the websites visited to hide comment-related elements. Feedback and contributions for site additions and improvements are welcome.

Works pretty well, and the whitelist/blacklist feature is very handy. When I came across a site that was not responding no matter what I did, I emailed the developer and they responded within a few hours, and had fixed it! That's some quick and responsive service.

It's amazing. Now I can watch videos on YT without the dreaded comments pulling me down into a hate-filled rabbit hole since willpower doesn't seem to work. Thank you for this!
