User reviews

Good. Minus: But it should not "flash" the votes when (re)loading a page, because that's (almost) against the purpose of this tool: If you are paying attention to your screen it's certainly notic- and readable. I am assuming it's a feature not a bug, anyhow. It would be cool to have an option for disabling this feature. Edit: Minus: The addon removes basic necessary functions, too: The EDIT button below posts is gone at default mode. (among "Comments, Share, Save" etc) You need to put off in the NoVote-options: "Post score" and "Vote buttons". Because of this this the addon is basically (almost) worthless, unless you never edit your posts or very rarely, then you can put off the addon temporarily and be fine.

It's great, but it doesn't remove the votes on a user's profile. The votes sometimes flash very briefly on the screen when the page loads also, but that's not a major issue for me. Very useful anyway. I have never been one for popularity contests and I would prefer to just see content without a subreddit's collective opinion attached. This achieves that goal well. I enjoy browsing reddit a lot more with this extension and I find it more relaxing and engaging without the distraction of the voting system.
