User Reviews

Exactly what I've been looking for, for my specific use-case (link archival, and being able to block completed entries). Unfortunately, the config for unhiding posts doesn't work, especially if the list is too long. There's also no quick way to get to it like a menu bar icon, but at least the page can be bookmarked. Besides that, I would especially like to be able to block a link I'm hovering over with a keybind!

This really would be a perfect extension; it worked perfectly for me exactly how I wanted it to. However, it does end up not working after awhile, and it no longer shows Blocked Elements list, and the icon no longer even gets pinned to my extensions bar. I definitely would donate if I could be guaranteed unlimited blocks

High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
