Shut Up: Comment Blocker Extension

If you've ever gone to a website and read its comments section, you'll have seen that it's just a vitriolic, idiotic wasteland.

Why subject yourself to that?

Shut Up hides comments by default. And, you can show comments on a page with a click of a button. It will remember where you turn on comments, and will show them the next time you visit that site.

That's it. Simple and free. Enjoy!

Gabe B (ID: 000000907a793da2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/02/2024 This extension is perfect for dealing with the idiocy of comment sections. Edit: Ricky can you work on improving the performance of the extension? It's a great extension features wise but it uses A LOT of CPU.
