Chloë (ID: 0000004d749ee30b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/31/2017 Perfect, exactly the per-site/page functionality I was looking for

John Campbell (ID: 0000004fdc2573d2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/26/2017 This is great. There are a couple of minor complaints however: 1) Clean up the console.log. 2) Maybe add a stylesheet to limit the width of the page. Something like body {max-width: 700px } would be great. I love this thing, and I everyone I tell about it loves it as well. Very nice work. I am sure it will catch on, as it is *much* better than ad blockers for reading news quickly.
