Will you be providing how many times each rich asshole was blocked, perhaps a monthly report? Because that's the icing on the cake.

I like the idea behind this extension and would love to use it. However, I would really appreciate the ability to tweak the blocklist. Not that I enjoy seeing or hearing about Trump everyday, but I do want to stay in the loop with the ongoing court cases he's getting rammed with. If I never hear or see Elon, Zuck, etc. again then I'd be happy.

Create a filter for uBO maybe? I run a number of specialized filters in uBO. A "block the rich filter" would be good. The advantage there is content can be removed from view completely, not just blurred.

It's in a bit of a strange position.

It blurs the Images, but doesn't block the article or text?

Maybe for some people it can mean something, tho for me it's a bit of a not interesting feature. Like what is the purpose of bluring the image if I still get spammed with the article?

And this may be the real issue where you didn't get traction. The feature pretty useless for the majority of people.

Thank you for this, @aCosmicWave@lemm.ee! I added this extension to my Firefox install because I am really sick of the same thing.

Lolz, it is crazy what one needs to do to prevail sanity these days

Love it. Keep going.

Count me in

This is AMAZING! Thank you. Running it now :)

Yes, dammit. In fact this is the final nudge I needed to reinstall Firefox after many years. Yours will be one of the first plugins in the install queue. Thank you, good sir.

i like this idea because when i go to read the news i do not care about what rich people are doing.

Lots of people say that we shouldn't be ignoring troublesome topics. I disagree.

Exposure and anger won't fix anything. It'll only degrade our quality of Life. It's just like reading about plane crashes won't get us anywhere ( unless it's part of your job)

If this could be changed to add a UI element to identify self-proclaimed pundits I feel it would be better. I think just blocking people is not fair. But, being more aware of whom may help improve critical thinking.

This is a great idea, I love it. Keep going!

I love the concept!

For me, the button of the extension doesn't work to toggle it on or off, so I can't find a way to view the blurred text without disabling the extension completely. So that would be a bit frustrating - sometimes I might want to read it, as in this post. If it's upgraded with an easy on/off toggle I'll probably start using it. :)

Blurred text also makes me somewhat curious by nature - a feature request would be to keep blurring images, but instead of blurring the text just changing the name of the person into "some asshole" or something like that. So that you get the substance of the headline without having to deal with the people.

If you could find a way to funnel the blocked content’s address to pi-hole it would just never load which is better imo

I think you should be able to block people and companies. I’m tired of hearing about Tesla, people hyping Tesla, people doubting Tesla, bragging, complaining, questioning. I’m just done hearing about it.
