Lichess hide Elo Firefox

Lichess hide Elo

Hides Elo ratings on lichess.org (NOTE: Lichess has since added this feature as a user preference, making this extension largely obsolete.)

Features & Capabilities

Did you ever play overly careful against a higher rated player? Or too careless against a lower rated player? This extension hides Elo ratings on the lichess.org website so they cannot influence your play. No ratings will be shown in the seek list or in the game. The extension can be toggled on or off with a single click.

NOTE: Lichess has since added a user preference to hide ratings, making this extension largely obsolete. However, the extension can toggle ratings on/off with a single click in the address bar. The Lichess user preference requires you to navigate to the preferences submenu, which is not what you want during a game. On the other hand, the Lichess preference will (probably) always work, whereas the extension can be broken by (even invisible) changes to the Lichess website.

For now the extension will continue to be available, but if (or rather, when) Lichess makes breaking changes it may be unpublished.

Is Lichess hide Elo Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Lichess hide Elo requires very minimum permissions.
