Features & Capabilities

Use de-Algorithm to block distraction feeds on Reddit and YouTube while still letting you open specific posts and videos.

de-Algorithm allows direct Reddit post pages and YouTube watch pages, but blocks general feed pages that encourage endless scrolling. If you try to open a blocked page, you’ll be redirected to a random Wikipedia article instead.

Features:

Blocks Reddit home and subreddit feeds
Blocks YouTube home and feed pages
Allows direct Reddit post links and YouTube watch links
Redirects blocked pages to a random Wikipedia page
Hides suggested videos sidebar on YouTube watch pages

de-Algorithm runs automatically once installed. You can keep using Google or direct links to access the exact content you want, without getting pulled into the feed.

Is de-Algorithm - Feed 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.

de-Algorithm - Feed Blocker requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

de-Algorithm - Feed Blocker may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
