Features & Capabilities

Every time I post something on the web, I'm stuck in the social confirmation dillema. I know it's not good for me to count the claps and retweets of my posts. But my flesh is week... y'a know?

This Browser Extension removes those 'social' features for some of the pages I use - because I want to create content, without bothering about how much likes and shares it gets.

Currently, there is only one supported page. I'm thinking about adding more! If you'd like to get a page added, comment on the medium article above or - even better - fork this repo and send me a pull request with your site added.

medium.com

filter out all notifications except for comments (because I want to answer those)
remove the clap counters on my own articles so I don't know how many people clapped for me

Is unsocial 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.

unsocial requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

unsocial is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
