Cleaner Medium Extension

The Medium reading experience has been lately badly disrupted with annoying popups and banners taking a lot of your browser window space from the start.
This extension cleans all the annoying elements like header, cookie and newsletter banners so you can have more of your window space filled with content and not ads.
It is a simple find and hide extension and it doesn't in any way collect data about your browsing behaviour and usage.
It is something I build for myself after getting constantly annoyed with being bombarded from all sorts of popups on Medium blogs, so I decided to share it with you.
There is a similar extension for Chrome - Make Medium Readable Again so if you find my version lacking in any way you can contact me for updates or try that one. It is also very good.
