en I can't find a way to remove the asterisks so far I can block the religion words I see posted during storm season. Religion drives me crazy..lol I killed God in the list. haha. But it showing asterisks. Otherwise "so far" its working. I noticed it did not show the word I entered at the time but refreshing page it did. However I have many other ad on blocking apps so may cause issues showing it. *update. * nope does not work on youtube at all. Sometimes it does work on other pages but most times now. So need to work on it more. fix the part where you can not use the *** and also that it works on Youtube and i will change my review.

Never worked. I used this to hopefully remove triggering words, but it didn't work.

It removed what I wanted, but not all the time. If I keep refreshing at some point it doesn't block out anything. Also, the thing I was trying to block out was "👁👄👁", and I'm guessing since it's emojis it wont work. You did a great job of making people think you can block emojis because of the thumbnail of the extension.

Was looking for just this sort of app, but this one does not work. Tried muting the name *jenner* but it's still showing up all over news sites despite being added to my list.

I am hoping that the developer(s) will add more functionalities to it so it can block more bad tings, like the bad websites, or websites that will spread malwares. This world will be a better world if more developers will work to block the bad tings from happening to the innocent users.
