The only reason I personally see why would one choose the other extension over mine is because of the more "friendly UI" it has, and I understand.Ĭurrently I provide a very basic one with no fancy design, but if you take a little bit of time to learn it, you'll appreciate the features it provides. I've had several users reporting significant improvement regrading performance over the other one, but you would have to test that one yourself. I fixed all of the above in my extension and believe it provides a more seamless and refined experience.Īs for the performance gains, as I recall (maybe wrong) the other extension uses MutationObserver which is slower than the method I'm using.
No public source code, all code is obfuscated inside the package No advanced filter options like blocking by channel ID or video length When visiting a blocked video directly, it would play several seconds before actually redirecting back to the homepage. It didn't block the channels/videos consistently enough, and they would still show on many places.
I used this extension before too, and I'll explain why I developed mine: Questions? Problems? Submission not showing up? Spot a spammer or a troll?
