What you see is what you get with this one! There's no options about how you will have tweets hidden; you cannot disappear them completely, only blur them... so if a tweet that has a caption that gets it blurred has a *picture* with huge enough text in the image, you'll still be able to read it. There's also no way to click-to-view, you have to remove a word from your blacklist in order to see a tweet. I guess this is slightly compensated for by the blacklist being dynamically updating (you don't need to reload the page! New additions and removals take effect on tweets immediately), but it's still a bit inconvenient. I'd most like to be able to completely remove tweets from a page instead of blurring them, or at least shrinking them down to a "blacklisted for (term)" bit like blacklists on Tumblr and Ao3 do, because they still take up a lot of space when blurred. Also! This extension is not compatible at ALL with OldTwitter extension! If you have OldTwitter installed, you'll have to click "open in new twitter" to get Tweet Blocker's options to show up. Worse still, Tweet Blocker's settings don't transfer over when you go back to Old view, so you have to turn OldTwitter off if you want tweets to actually stay blocked. This extension has ZERO cross-compatibility with OldTwitter at the moment. But *worse* worse... it didn't save my blacklist after I closed the browser/shut off my PC! I'm having to type in my blacklist all over again! I don't know if it was because my screen froze, or if it was caused by the toggling of OldTwitter, but regardless, that's a major hassle for an already-subpar extension. There really needs to be a decent blacklist for Twitter already.
