EDIT: Works great. Below is a problem I was experience but Alexander Kwaschny helped me out and turns out I simply didn't fully understand how to navigate the interface. Old Review: Unable to open the settings to remove items from "hidden". Twitch will "Recommend" channels you are already following. I removed the channels I was already following from the "Recommended" to remove the redundancy, and now those channels I have hidden from "Recommended" are now no longer visible in my follow list when they go live. Channels I am following should not be removed from my follower list, even though I did click "hide" on the recommended screen. I can click "Details" and "Remove" (removes the extension) under settings, and Details does not help me in anyway. At one point in time, I was able to go into another settings screen and see what I have hidden, and remove them from the hide list if I wanted, but that screen is no longer accessible it seems. Otherwise I like it, does a great job at hiding vtubers and the like.
