This is a great tool to undo some of the bad things Quora did to annoy its user base. Unfortunately only the "Mute Block" Feature works in other languages than English. It would be great if the two other features could also help one in the foreign language versions. Since "Mute" and "Block" have other labels in different languages, it shouldn't be a translation issue? Otherwise happy to help to find the right buttons (for German and French versions). If this is extended it truly deserves a sixth star!

This is great for the most part, but it's got a bug. When enabled, I get "There was an error loading more items" in Quora when scrolling down more than a handful of items. Disable it and the problem is gone -- no need to remove. Other than that, it does everything else I'd like in a Quora extension. If you can't easily fix it, how about a title bar button to allow an easy toggle on-off.
