CIRLU_bd (ID: 00000008e1a018c6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/17/2024 Good alternative to #BlocktheBlue, as an artist I can't block too many accounts because it'll deboost my own account, screw you Elon, so this extension realy save my sanity ! I was really getting fed up with Blue subscribers having the worst takes and being the first replies under big tweets, finally I can simply enjoy a good tweet and its good replies again. The Blues are masked, thank you ! Edit : As of May 2024 it stopped working ! :'( :'( :'(

Xavier Caro (ID: 000000136c71cf08) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/11/2023 Love it! 🙏 Although I would rather hide the checkmarks from replies only, not on my timeline if possible since I follow some verified accounts which I am interested in. That would be a great improvement!
