Promoted Pin Hider - Hide Pinterest's Promoted Pins

'Promoted Pin Hider' is a Chrome extension that eliminates the appearance of promoted pins on Pinterest. It allows users to enjoy a seamless experience by creating a gap where those pins used to be, thus minimizing distractions. The extension continuously updates its script to deliver effective results, and strives to support all languages across every international domain. Despite the ocassional visibility of an ad pre-scroll, Promoted Pin Hider is robustly designed to not breakdown with every Pinterest code upgrade, ensuring you an efficient performance.
