Summary

Analyze keywords

This is a browser extension designed to block content on the Archive of Our Own. Currently, you can block work tags, archive warnings, and ratings.

This extension is not as user-friendly as the archive is. Please read the directions before you try to use it.

This extension is not intended to replace the existing AO3 search functions, including excluding tags, warnings, or search parameters. It is, instead, intended as a nuclear option. If you do not want to see a tag, warning, or rating ever again, you can give it to the tag blocker and it’s gone. Forever. There are some places where the extension cannot block tags (listed on the site), but it will eliminate the tag(s) you want blocked for almost all normal use of the site.

So i got it working some of the time, not great. Then it started replacing my open tabs with stuff like ://n. So i had to go for a backup i made a few days ago, and i have no idea if i missed anything.

OMG I CAN FINALLY STOP HAVING RANDOM UNDERAGE THINGS POP UP UNDER TAGS, YALL ARE DISCUSTING, IT MAKES ME WANT TO ACTUALLY THROW UP WHEN I SEE THE CHARACTERS I LOVE BEING WRITEN INTO PEDOPHILIC STORIES :(

While this works like a charm blocking unwanted ships, so you don't have to do that exhausting manual labour of excluding like 10-30 ships (depending on fandom) every time I want to exclude some, it makes it difficult to search for works, since the blocked tags will automatically (it seems) be put into the "word count" field. Thus giving me a page for some syntax error and all of the tags included with the, for example, story title I've searched for. This should be corrected, since its annoying, so 4 stars out of 5 for this minor annoyance.
