Social Media Grayscale Firefox

Social Media Grayscale

Renders matched social media sites in grayscale. No scripts, no tracking, no storage. It's just a quick bit of CSS to make the social media sites in its manifest always display in grayscale.

Features & Capabilities

Social Grayscale is a simple browser extension designed to help make social media feel less addictive.

It does exactly one thing: applies a quick bit of CSS to the social media sites listed in its manifest so they always render in grayscale. By removing colour, the extension helps reduce the visual stimulation that makes these platforms so attention-grabbing.

There are no scripts, no tracking, no storage, no analytics, and no background processes. Just a lightweight grayscale filter for a calmer, less addictive browsing experience.

Is Social Media Grayscale 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.

Social Media Grayscale requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Social Media Grayscale is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
