User reviews

This reader is for those who like to use CSS/scripts. The complexity of options intrigues yet befuddles me. Works with Style Sheets and Scripts, but seems to work only on a whitelist basis.. so you would need to set up before viewing a page. I tried an all-accepting view for a webpage, and it didn't work for me. There is an instruction guide. This one takes learning. Last update April 2022

This extension takes the best (in my opinion) approach to declutter a web page from intrusive elements. It does this not by deleting selected elements (which identities may constantly change), but by showing only selected elements (which identities are usually stable).
