Summary
SOFOCUS is a way to clear out the visual noise often experienced when visting stack overflow. Many times I find myself googling a programming question only to find myself on a page about "My girlfriend cannot stop farting at social events - what should I do?" a few clicks later. This is largely due to the massive list of questions to the right which distract my attention.
I can't control myself so, of course, I made an extension to do it for me. It's pretty hacky but it works.
Safety
Risk impact
SOFOCUS is relatively safe to use as it requires very minimum permissions.
Risk likelihood
SOFOCUS may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
