Nukem Extension

There are plenty of Chrome extensions that allow you to remove elements from the page, but they all seem to be temporary. This one remembers whats been removed, and removes it whenever the page is loaded again.

Once installed, press the toolbar button to start removing elements. Press the button again to stop. The options page will then be displayed showing what you've removed. Just press Close if you don't want to make any tweaks.

Wildcards can be used to make it work on multiple pages from the same site (for example) and an optional delay can be set in case the element you want to remove doesn't get displayed right away.

Notes:
Unfortunately, some websites generate content dynamically in a way that this extension can't cope with. Right click the toolbar icon to visit the options page. Then try adding a delay or reducing the scope (with the left arrow button) if the element doesn't get removed when the page is refreshed after saving your changes.

Pat MySecret (ID: 0000000f565a0b8a) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 08/30/2023 Without actually trying this extension, I wanted to mention that you probably use the ad blocker AdGuard or uBlock Origin anyways (and if you don't you probably should).. well AdGuard in particular, is very adept at doing similar.. just treat the area like an ad you want to get rid of.. you can always switch back if you change your mind

Gadot MFC (ID: 0000001bb692febd) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/14/2023 I would SO much love this extension if it did not open the Options every time I Stopped Nukin'. I like that it has a large and easy to read list of what I have nuked in the options. Most of the time I Start Nukin' and I will remove 2-7 elements, and either use my browser keyboard shortcut or the extension icon in the corner to Stop Nukin' and it will pop up the options on an entirely other window. It would be super awesome if it would just automatically save without opening up the Options, while allowing us to access the options whenever we were finished. It is like playing the original 8-bit Zelda with a 9999 damage shotgun, but you have to click through the load screen after every room. Edit: 5-star reduced to 1-star There seems to be a limit for how many elements I can permanently hide. I do not wish to use this any more.

张子鑫 (ID: 0000004d1fbc477f) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 02/28/2023 Some bug : 1. Text url start with wildcard in option page will clear out everything but first line. This is very fatal !! Text like this: " *://www.google.cn/* ". It is legal. Whatever it took two hour to edit and finally emptied. 2. Data loss when option page lose focus.
