Used to be a great tool, but now it's just used by the people who run it to flag people who disagree with what being trans "should" look like- such as targeting trans men who speak out about their experiences instead of shutting up and suffering in silence.

I personally think its fine despite the suspicious review bombing lol

This app was one I used to use all the time, Particularly on sites like YouTube and such where I didn't want to give advertising money to transphobes. However, this app is now being used as a weapon for lateral aggression by people who want to erase trans men and our experiences, and I can no longer support it in good conscience until something is fixed. Trans men get flagged red for talking about the transphobia we face as men, because people don't like it when marginalized people mention situations where intersectional struggles seem to erase (often conditional in these specific cases and that's why it is able to be taken away) privilege, and that isn't okay.

Really useful way to be warned about transphobes online. Most of the negative reviews are from people who'd rather review-bomb the extension than reflect on the way they treat trans women.

works fine. not foolproof, but broadly its perfectly functional. very rarely have i seen somebody marked red where they shouldn't be - the reverse IS more common though. I pay way more attention to red markings than green ones as a result. many negative reviews are because people forget it's possible to be trans and transphobic at the same time, and that you can contest false markings if you see fit.

I do not recommend. It marks outright TERFs and radfems as green, and transmascs/men, nonbinary people, and intersex people as red.

makes transmisogynists really mad

I'm kind of mixed on this add-on. It is helpful for identifying anti-LGBT news outlets and sites...

But, when it comes to social media accounts, I've encountered accounts that have been falsely mass-reported for seemingly no reason. It's usually pretty accurate, but some accounts seem to be randomly reported. At this point, it's almost more like an indicator on whether someone has ever participated in trans discourse at all rather than an easy yes-trans-safe or no-transphobe system.

used to be useful but turned into hot garbage recently. have seen straight up radfems, gendercrits, transphobes, etc marked green and transmasculine, nonbinary, and intersex people marked red for having the wrong discourse opinions lol.

This used to be an extension that did what it claimed to do, but now it marks transmen and mascs and intersex people as red (unsafe), while marking people who spew the most VILE hatred towards them as green (safe). Whoever mods the extension should be ashamed.

I like the concept of this add-on. Marking people who are transphobic, and marking people who are "safe" for trans people. I used it for a whole year and felt a little safer on the internet because of it. But unfortunately, it seems like there's a bias at play.

Quite a few trans positive people are marked red seemingly because they don't subscribe to a specific set of ideas (which seems to be a specific kind of radical feminism?), including trans men talking about the unique oppression they face. And some people (mostly trans women in my experience) are marked as green even though they're mean to trans people who aren't like them or don't think like them.

It makes me sad to see this add-on used for bullying and infighting when it should be about who's marked as an actual threat to the trans community and who's safe to be around trans people in general.

So cool that my friends are getting marked as transphobic because of petty discourse while openly transphobic accounts are out here being marked as trans friendly thank you!!!!

I'm a trans person who has been dedicating years of my time to making a website from scratch called thetransgenderdictionary.com where I compile resources and information for all trans and trans-adjacent people and this extension marked it as transphobic lol this thing is a joke.
