Nukem: Chrome Extension for Permanent Web Elements Removal

"Nukem" is a unique Chrome extension designed to permanently remove elements from web pages. Unlike its counterparts, Nukem remembers the removed elements and ensures that they are not displayed again when the page is refreshed. Users can toggle the removal function with the touch of a button and view their changes on the options page. The tool also supports wildcards for site-wide operation and provides an optional delay feature for delayed content display. There are certain constraints due to dynamic content generation on some websites. However, these issues can be mitigated by adjusting delay and scope settings.

Extension summary

There are plenty of Chrome extensions that allow you to remove elements from the page, but they all seem to be temporary. This one remembers whats been removed, and removes it whenever the page is loaded again.

Once installed, press the toolbar button to start removing elements. Press the button again to stop. The options page will then be displayed showing what you've removed. Just press Close if you don't want to make any tweaks.

Wildcards can be used to make it work on multiple pages from the same site (for example) and an optional delay can be set in case the element you want to remove doesn't get displayed right away.

Notes: Unfortunately, some websites generate content dynamically in a way that this extension can't cope with. Right click the toolbar icon to visit the options page. Then try adding a delay or reducing the scope (with the left arrow button) if the element doesn't get removed when the page is refreshed after saving your changes.

Without actually trying this extension, I wanted to mention that you probably use the ad blocker AdGuard or uBlock Origin anyways (and if you don't you probably should).. well AdGuard in particular, is very adept at doing similar.. just treat the area like an ad you want to get rid of.. you can always switch back if you change your mind
