Pin Buster Extension

Hides those pesky, distracting, overused, poorly targeted promotional pins from your Pinterest feeds.

* Please note that this extension only works if your Pinterest account is set to display in English.

Change Log:

v1.5.1 - More aggressive pin busting to accommodate recent DOM changes on Pinterest.

v1.5.0 - Pinterest now has sponsors and promotions. The Pin Buster has been updated accordingly.

v1.4.3 - Pinterest again changed their DOM structure in an attempt to negate extensions like this. Pin Buster has been adjusted accordingly.

v.1.4.2 - Pinterest changed their DOM structure again. Pin Buster has been adjusted accordingly.

v.1.4.1 - Altered new pin busting implementation since the one from 1.4.0 had unwanted side effects (sorry about that!).

v.1.4.0 - Pinterest tried to outsmart us by getting sneaky with a new DOM structure specifically designed to negate extensions like this. But a workaround has been implemented that should bring back full functionality.

v1.3.2 - Improved video busting implementation per user feedback. Updated to Manifest V3.

v1.3.1 - Bugfixes to new pin busting implementation.

v1.3.0 - Changes to accommodate new DOM structure on Pinterest that broke the old pin busting implementation.

Bo Heffner (ID: 000000bcb4383314) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/19/2023 Works without major lag, much improved over the last promoted pins extension. However, it doesn't fully block the ads as the picture shows. All pictures and videos appear as black boxes- the ad's text and the brand account that posted it is still visible underneath.
