Review by Rose838
Rated 3 out of 5
by Rose838, 5 years agoThis add-on is useful ... as long as it's not being abused, and there doesn't appear to be a direct way of reporting that abuse (I had to create this account, just to write this review, in the hopes a developer will see it).
A blogger on tumblr has been falsely flagged as transphobic by other bloggers who don't like their not-trans-related fandom opinions. I thought I'd corrected it - I scoured their blog and found evidence of very positive, pro-trans opinions and not a single speck of transphobia, so I flagged them as trans-friendly.
And this isn't the only time I've seen this! Someone flagged an enby and KNOWN trans activist as transphobic on Wikipedia. This person had to flee their country for their trans activism, but sure, I guess we'll let somebody call them transphobic??
... I found out today that when I fix a flase flag, it only fixed the flagging on MY computer specifically. This blogger is still being harassed and bullied for "being transphobic" because of the way they are FALSELY flagged by this extension.
Until some sort of quality assurance comes into play, I'm afraid I can't trust any Shinigami Eyes highlight - I have to personally assess every single time, and it's frustrating to know that I can't ACTUALLY correct a blatant false flag. There has GOT to be a way of genuinely correcting false flags, because transphobes know about this extension, and they are more than willing to use it maliciously.

- Rated 2 out of 5by dreadful, 6 days agoi don't care about tmras and transmisogynists whinging about how they're being bullied for spreading vile bs abt trans women, but i have seen actual 4tranners get marked green, including a dedicated 4tran subreddit. come the fuck on. you wouldn't call an edtwt user a feminist for saying moid.
it's just become a discourse tool now, which is functionally useless for measuring what is and is not actually unsafe for trans people (esp women) to be around. - Rated 1 out of 5by Jak, 6 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by KYLEGUTZZ, 9 days agoLike. SO many trans men, non-binary and intersex people are marked as transphobic on this thing for speaking about the oppression they face. So fucked. Also like. a lot of black trans people are marked red for no reason??? Racist and transphobic, avoid at all costs. If you need to check if a page or blog is transphobic, just do the work yourself.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Luna, 9 days agoy'all the rating are community made if someone who is a trans ally is marked red it's because people using the extension marked it as red for some reason
- Rated 4 out of 5by bunglung, 11 days agopretty good. ive been using it for a while and has been largely accurate. im not sure the specifics of the process. but as of late it seems false negatives within the system have been circulating just for people combating transmisogyny. one thing that would help is when somebody is marked red or green (though it would benefit red marks the most) it gives a reason why they were marked such and a link/screenshot to where the person expressed a belief which way. don't use it without checking, especially for red marks, but it can help bring your attention to whether or not a person might be transphobic
- Rated 5 out of 5by Galius, 13 days agoalright I gotta swallow my pride and say that when I made my last review, I was duped. I was poorly informed by the reviews, and after using the plugin and better understanding the actual conversation around the relevant issues, I'm changing my 1 star review to a 5 star review.
Effective plugin, and it feels nice to see green names going around. Recommended if you think it would help you. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 20037153, 14 days agoI looked at the guidelines when wondering why so many pro-transgender pages are marked red and it sounds like using assigned-gender-at-birth language is being encouraged as "do not mark trans-friendly" due to transmisogyny. Julia Serrano's article on what transmisogyny is does use that language. So am I supposed to mark Julia Serrano as anti-trans??? I'm supposed to flag the woman who coined the term "transmisogyny" as being violently transphobic? That sounds rather counterproductive! Can the developer explain why this is supposed to make sense? Are people flagging others just to see them turn red? Did anti-trans people raid the app, and the mods just can't keep up?
- Rated 1 out of 5by mina, 14 days agoBeen noticing a very weird pattern of trans people of color (regardless whether they're ftm, mtf or enby) or people who point out racism within trans community being marked as red. Do not use.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Meowing, 14 days agoReview bomb this fake trans friendly app, wouldn't be surprised if the owner is a trans women chaser who is also transphobic
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20033086, 16 days agoI got marked red because I said I headcanoned ralsei as transmasc
- Rated 2 out of 5by woob, 16 days agoWas using this for years to avoid dealing with blatant transphobes but now half the markers are over intracommunity squabbles so it's become practically useless for that purpose. trans woman btw.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20031774, 16 days agoInsanely transphobic, exorsexist, and intersexist, it's so disappointing

- Rated 1 out of 5by explodingcows54, 19 days agovery commonly see transmeds (people who police transness) marked as green and trans men marked as red, with no evidence theyre anti trans or trans friendly. lacks unbiased review.

- Rated 4 out of 5by tsintzask, 23 days agoIt works fine. Of course anything with a community-sourced database is gonna have its misfires, but overall it serves its purpose well enough.
I'd like the ability to mark stuff on mobile firefox too, though. Or at least to be able to manually import an override list, or something along those lines. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16876736, 24 days agoif you are a trans woman you NEED this extention. if you are a trans man who knows transandrophobia is not an actual axis of oppression and wants to be more of a transfeminist you NEED this extention.
