- Rated 5 out of 5by Merak Bear, 3 years agoWorks exactly as described, and has made my timeline much cleaner. It's nice because (since blocks work Twitter-side and not device-side), any blocks this extension makes on desktop will of course carry over to mobile.
The only thing I would love to see on this extension would be a way to see a list of users it has blocked (rather than just the queue). It's blocked a few folks I didn't really intend for it to block (not the extension's fault; just people I wasn't following or thinking about when I installed it), and I don't always catch the pop-ups, so it would be nice to have a list of blocked accounts that I could go back and review periodically. But that's such a minor gripe, and it's not really anything WRONG with the extension; just something I'd like to see. So definitely still giving it 5 stars because it's worth it!Developer response
posted 3 years agohello, as of v0.3.4, you can click the block count in the context menu (the menu that's opened by clicking the extension icon in your browser toolbar) to open a full history of all users blocked by the extension and why. note that this history is installation-specific, so your history will vary on different devices if you use more than one. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17494439, 3 years ago

posted 3 years agohey! I would check this issue and see if this matches any of your settings: https://github.com/kheina-com/Blue-Blocker/issues/156#issuecomment-1613798589
if that doesn't match/fix your issue, please make an issue on GitHub and we'll look into it https://github.com/kheina-com/Blue-Blocker/wiki/How-To-Make-An-Issue- Rated 5 out of 5by Rose, 3 years agoThank you very much for this awesome addon!
It's a shame we need something like this, but hey-ho. The ability to skip old legacy accounts is appreciated, as is the custom follower limiter. Makes it easier to avoid blocking potentially non-garbage accounts, while also still getting rid of $8 idiots with 12 followers. I'm also liking the newly added promoted tweet blocker. Ever since rocket clown took over, my timeline has been flooded with "life coaches" and crypto scam garbage.
If only this worked on mobile too! Thank you again! - Rated 5 out of 5by ZombieWolf, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Gabriel, 3 years agoFinally able to remove spammers, parody accounts and conspiracy theorists from Twitter.
This also doesn't interfere with people you follow.
if you use Twitter, you must have this extension! - Rated 5 out of 5by Lebster, 3 years agoThis add-on appears to work for most people, but for me, it doesn't do anything. It won't save my settings, doesn't block or mote anyone, and its queue is always empty.
EDIT: the add-on works as designed after re-installing it.Developer response
posted 3 years agoit sounds like the extension installed fine, but is unable to access local storage for some reason. this is pretty critical to how all extensions work. do you have any other extensions installed that have this issue?
could you make an issue on github so that we can try to figure out the root cause of this issue?

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14587546, 3 years agoWorks like a charm, the only thing I'd like to see added in the future however is something along the lines of being able to set up a cooldown after reaching block limit in which the extension won't block accounts but still add them to the queue.
I know the block cooldown is there to circumvent that however even after setting it up to one block a minute I ended up getting logged out from twitter after a few hours so they might've messed with the block limit and cooldown for it.
On top of that, I just think it could be useful to have the block cooldown and a cooldown for the amount blocked just in case anyone would like to have people blocked as quick as possible - Rated 5 out of 5by lix, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by QpIa8SbUKb, 3 years agoService seems amazing!
Initially I tweaked the bar down for ignoring blue accounts with low follower counts but quickly reset it to the suggested number.
I also initially went with a lower idle time but am aware that if we go too low we can get automation-banned. - Rated 5 out of 5by Eno, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by UnDeadCharger, 3 years agoPerfect extension, i don't have to facepalm everytime i scroll twitter anymore

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17246962, 3 years agoPretty great. Blocks mostly all the annoying people pushed to the top of replies so working as intended. If there was one thing I'd add it'd be a way to add people to the "never block" list without having to open the queue some how.
EDIT: As of about May 20th 2024, this extension is no longer functional, possibly because of the domain name change of "Twitter" to "X" .com, but i dunno for sure, but it's for sure not working anymore - Rated 5 out of 5by Cleridwen, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by goose, 3 years agoBest addon for twitter by far, works flawlessly and is rich in features. I appreciate the option to auto block NFT profile pics.
