User reviews

still haven't found the perfect selector extension :( most just have a gross amount of nth-type selectors and that's not right. this one tries to use ID and class names, which is what I want, but it just didn't do it properly. granted, I tried it on a site that doesn't have easily-determined (i.e. well-named) selectors, but if it did I wouldn't need an extension. I really wanted to like this one, but it just didn't do its job. it didn't give the proper selection, like it was a relative selector even though it was supposed to be relative to :root I recommend renaming "filters" to "exclusions" because I thought it was for me adding inclusions until I watched the video a second time.
