ElementHider: Hide, blur, highlight, or replace content by keyword

Features & Capabilities

ElementHider helps you control what appears on websites by filtering posts, sections, feeds, and text containing keywords or phrases. Hide spoilers and unwanted topics, blur content until you hover, or click page elements such as banners, sidebars, and recommendations to hide them across a site. Dynamic filtering works as new content loads on YouTube, Reddit, X, news websites, and other feeds.

Your keywords, settings, and filtering remain local in your browser with no account or sign-up required. Optional Supporter Pack features include keyword groups, highlighting, replacement mode, regular expressions, context learning, site-specific rules, test mode, and dark mode.

I tried this extension because I was hoping that muting a keyword would mute/hide the entire post for me and not just the muted word, because originally I downloaded it to try to use on Twitter. It's fine for hiding words but I'd like it more if it'd hide entire posts that have the keywords completely. I can't get rid of seeing certain posts in the search despite the words itself in the post being hidden, and I'd rather not see them at all. Blacklists work for the home timeline in Twitter already, but I need it for the search too. edit: okay so I did what was suggested and I didn't know it could do that so this was SO helpful. Thank you so much!

It's great at what it does, but... even if I turn hiding off and tell it only to work on one specific website and set filter words to one specific website... 3 different layers of "this should not touch this other website I don't want touched", this extension being on breaks ebay, utterly and completely. You can't sign in, you can't add to cart once you are signed in, lot of functionality breaking. I tried all kinds of settings tweaks, the only way to get the website working was to fully disable the extension while I was using it.

Is ElementHider 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.

ElementHider requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

ElementHider is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
