When I first installed this it seemed to mostly work but then the next time I opened Twitch the blacklist button was gone until I uninstalled the addon and reinstalled it. Blacklist button is back but it is no longer filtering out anything I put in the black list. Sadly useless.

Отличнийшее приложение. Скрыть можно конкретного стримера, тег или вообще всю категорию. Желаю добра разработчику!
