Review summary

CryptoMining Blocker is appreciated for effectively blocking mining scripts and improving browser performance without heavy impact. However, users frequently complain about intrusive and persistent notifications, lack of visibility into what is blocked, and overblocking legitimate crypto sites or scripts, sometimes rendering websites unusable. The inability to whitelist sites or hide notifications is a common frustration. Overall, it works well but could be improved by adding logging, a whitelist feature, and less intrusive notifications.

Pros

Effectively blocks crypto-mining scripts, improving performance and reducing CPU usage.
Lightweight and works well across various sites including media streaming platforms.
Provides noticeable improvement in browser performance by stopping unwanted mining activities.
Users find it useful and reliable for protecting against unauthorized mining.

Cons

Annoying persistent notifications about blocked mining activities, which cannot be disabled or hidden.
Lack of transparency: users cannot easily see which sites or scripts are being blocked or get a log of blocked items.
Overblocking issues: some official cryptocurrency sites or useful scripts are fully blocked, rendering parts of websites unusable.
No option to whitelist sites, causing inconvenience when legitimate sites are blocked.
The plugin blocks entire websites instead of just disabling mining scripts, impacting usability.

2022-10-27	us*****	I guess it does something, not sure what. Wanted to write review to let know the developer that those floating notifications are way way annoying. It would be good if a user can hide those. When they appear they stay for a longer time than they should. Dragging link to create a shortcut on the desktop is impossible until clicked on those notifications. On some news websites I just disable the add-on before I visit a site, just because of those notifications. They don't mean anything to me nor I care what something something has been blocked. Simple counter on the toolbar icon would be sufficient
