2024-06-12	Husky Redd	en	it was great, but doesn't work anymore
2024-05-17	Maxime Charest	en	Great product. It doesn't work now that the site's url is exclusively x.com. The devs might need to change so that it also requests permission to x. Edit: Found a fix for the missing x.com permissions. (Save your whitelist beforehand) 1. Find your extension folder -C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\[Profile]\Extensions\ 2. In chrome go to manage extensions and find the id for bluesblocker (you will need developer mode on). In the extensions folder, there should be a folder with the id as its name. 3. Copy this folder and open the copy (or just modifiy the original) 4. Change all references of twitter.com to x.com in these two scripts/files -background.js -manifest.json 5. Go back to manage extensions in chrome, open the bluesblocker details, click load unpacked and select the version folder with the modifications. Final note, you might need to reload the unpacked folder sometimes when you turn it on after its been off. Enjoy.
2024-05-20	Michael Parks	en	Completely stopped working in the last couple of weeks.
2024-03-16	Cath	en	Had to stop using awhile after my feed felt empty, checked my list and it has some checkmarked artists I followed
2023-12-27	Mike Rogers	en	Blocked ~148500, ~1500 pending, but now the app appears stuck and is throwing "Unchecked runtime.lastError: QUOTA_BYTES quota exceeded" errors. Has it exceeded a local storage limit? Any chance of expanding the quota in a new build?
2023-09-29	Tom Legg	en	Great little extension that makes Twitter so much more usable since Elmo decided to push all of the replies from the dumbest people on the planet to the top. Just wish there was a way to use it on my phone as well.
2023-05-07	Dana Toland	en	It was okay until it quit working a couple of days ago. No recent updates to the extension. I am now using Blue Blocker, very happy with that one, more options. This one should either be updated or removed from the Chrome store. Thank you for the effort though!
2023-06-19	Chris DeLeon		I had unchecked "block big accounts" to which it promptly blocked a lot of giant accounts anyway including the current president of the united states. I'm now having to clean up after it. Do not trust this extension

2023-06-19	Gina Wilson		Somewhat useless. I'm looking to block brainless users, NOT things I don't even care about and aren't offensive, such as MLB and every MLB team. Also the pop-ups on the left side of the screen are irritating and block the menus I actually want to use. Instant un-install for me. Don't bother.
