changelog:
User reviews
Doesn't work. Added "READ THIS*" to replace anything with "READ THIS" at the start "BLOCKED BLOCKED BLOCKED" and it straight up didn't do a thing.
This is the best text-blocking extension that exists.
But it's a shame that I can't see the list of sites that I've set up to block certain texts so far.
If the filter is updated to be fine-controlled like U-block, the usability will increase tremendously.
Nice!
