| 2024-10-10 |  | | en | Doesn't work, first page I tried it on refused to load as long as the extension was enabled. |
| 2024-08-08 |  | | en | does it's job, but slows down the browser to the point that some pages freeze after being loaded for a few seconds |
| 2024-08-06 |  | | en | iirc (if I recall correctly), I heard about this extension through TikTok or YouTube during quarantine and decided to give it a try since I was struggling with some dysphoria at the time, and it actually ended up helping me out a lot. The extension replaced all mentions of my deadname with my preferred name on literally EVERY webpage, so it ultimately helped me to feel a lot less anxious/worried about being "jumpscared" by my deadname while doing zoom classes or visiting other sites. It pretty much worked like how people advertised it. I don't really use this extension anymore since it's become a lot easier to handle situations where I see my deadname, so I don't necessarily need it, but this is honestly one of the most helpful extensions I've ever used; I'd definitely recommend this to others!!! (Also: I kind of wondered why it wasn't possible to set/change multiple names, but I kind of figured out you technically can through the middle and last name boxes.) |
| 2024-07-24 |  | | en | Functions seemlessly, but I'm using this for professional purposes to hide my coworker's names while screensharing at this point. This extension is only good for one person, and won't let you set replacements for multiple people at a time. Since I'm not using this for myself, that's the only thing I would really ask to change. May end up having to switch to a new extension or write my own in the future for this reason. |

| 2024-07-08 |  | | en | i honestly cant lie im only here bc interactive fics was removed but this works so incredibly well for what i need it for <33 |
| 2024-06-26 |  | | en | omg whoever made this I literally love you- I've seen some people mentioning issues; I just installed it but so far everything's working :) |
| 2024-05-14 |  | | en | Worked great until entire bodies of emails wouldn't show up within gmail due to them containing my deadname. For some reason, if an email contained my deadname, rather than the deadname being replaced with my preferred name, it would just entirely delete that email. The email preview would show the email itself just fine, and would even replace my deadname with my preferred name there. Overall, great idea, but buggy execution it would seem. |
| 2024-05-07 |  | | en | I have never been more excited about an extension in my entire life |
| 2024-05-05 |  | | en | Didn't work :/ Downloaded it, wasn't entirely sure how to set it up. I think I figured it out but then it didn't change anything at all. |
