Twitter Block Chain

Blocks all users on a following/followers page.

What is Twitter Block Chain?

"Twitter Block Chain" is a Chrome extension created to tackle the issue of harmful retweets and dogpiling on Twitter. It allows users to navigate to any Twitter user's followers/following page and block all the users listed there with just one click. The extension will not re-block users that have been previously blocked or block users that you're following. It also allows users to export and import followers lists in a special format. Moreover, if you're blocked by an abusive user, you can retrieve their followers/followings list using the export function after logging out and import them back after logging in again. Users can view block receipts and add protected users through the options.

Extension summary

Analyze keywords

Reduce the damage done by retweeting and dogpiling. Simply navigate to a user's followers/following page and activate the extension by clicking the icon next to the omnibox/address bar. The extension does not block users you are following, or re-block users that have already been blocked. You can also export and import lists of followers in a special format. If an abusive user has blocked you, you can use the export function to retrieve the list of their followers/followings after logging out, and then import the result after logging back in to Twitter.

View blocking receipts and add protected users by right clicking the extension's icon and choosing "Options."

User reviews

i used this for the longest time, and even when the api changed if you knew when to log in and log out of twitter to get it to work again, this was quite the effective tool. unfortunately this no longer works since twitter changed the domain to x (was the evil muskrat planning against this tool all along?) and the dev has apparently been radio silent, and Chrome's hippy "PEACE, LOVE, EVERYTHING MUST BE CODED IN RUST" ideology means it may be gone from the store soon. RIP to good software, and hello again to the ever relentless onslaught that is the ensh!77ification of the internet
