Promoted Pin Hider Extension
IF YOU ARE STILL SEEING ADS: Please upload a screenshot of your pinterest feed to an image hosting site and include that url in your support post. This will help me identify what the problem might be.
**Updated 09/12/19 - Noticed that some non-ad pins were getting blocked, so that's been fixed. Let me know if any ads sneak through.**
**Updated 08/13/19 - Trying some new stuff out. The app now runs when you first interact with the page, so it's less resource-heavy but you might see an ad before you start scrolling.**
**Updated 03/29/19 - Updated script so it starts before page load, which might help. Or it might not. But it probably won't make it worse?**
**Updated 03/25/19 - Changed method by which script selects promoted pins, hopefully this should fix issues some people have been having**
**Updated 02/25/19 - Added support for all languages!!! That means I looked at ads in every single language that pinterest supports, because I love you all.**
**Updated 11/27/17 - Added support for every international Pinterest domain - Extension should work in every country as long as your language is set to English.**
**Updated 10/13/17 - Added support for Pinterest.ca**
**Updated 07/05/17 - Updated so that it won't break every time Pinterest updates their code.**
