Summary

This extension "themes" high-traffic sites to remove unwanted ads, popups, and other cluttering elements from the content. Pin the extension to easily request a theme for your favorite sites, but otherwise, this is an install-and-forget extension that improves your daily viewing experience.

Privacy Policy:

  • We do not collect any user information whatsoever.
  • We do not sell anything - to you, or any other party.

Suggested Use:

Retheme operates in a very different way from traditional ad-blockers, therefore we recommend using it WITH one of those. They block many 3rd-party scripts, speeding up the overall page load, while Retheme only tackles the visual layer, but can improve layout issues, remove gaps, etc. They both have their uses, so run both!

User reviews
Great plugin, it really cleans up a lot of websites for me.
by Robert Kemp Robert Kemp, 2023-06-20

Like virtually everyone else on the planet, I have very little tolerance for the number of ads that choke sites I visit regularly. Having the ability to read content without all of those distracting ads and pop-ups is really incredible. This extension does a wonderful job of cleaning up pages, and I can't wait until it is released on more sites!
