User reviews

PureTwitter is appreciated for its precise blocking of undesirable content and overall usefulness. However, multiple users report issues with frequent false positives, overbroad keyword filtering, and lack of automated blacklist synchronization, which reduces effectiveness. Interface concerns include an intrusive block button and poor readability in dark mode. Some users request better multilingual support and browser compatibility. Suggestions for improvement include collaborative blacklist sharing and features to block certain user behaviors more accurately to reduce misblocking.

Pros

Users find the extension generally useful and appreciate its functionality.
Supports manual control over blocking, allowing users to customize their experience.
Suggestions for improvement indicate active user engagement and interest in enhancing features.

Cons

False positives due to broad keyword filters, leading to blocking of legitimate or non-target accounts, especially Japanese language users.
Lack of automated or collaborative blacklist syncing, causing some undesirable content to remain unblocked unless manually added.
Interface usability issues such as intrusive or aesthetically unpleasing block buttons that affect the visual experience.
Compatibility issues on some browsers like Yandex mobile browser where the extension doesn't function properly.
Limited theme support leading to readability problems, e.g., text visibility issues in dark mode.

Extension safety

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.

PureTwitter requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
