There is no perfect system and there are false positives occasionally, but this add-on is much more useful than it is buggy or troubled. Too bad it only works if there aren't any bad actors.

I genuinely have no recollection of installing this add-on. Googled why some links were red, found nothing, but sort of picked up that I should be careful with these if I wasn't in a good place mentally.

It finally clicked when I saw this add-on. It truly warms my heart. Thank you.

Unless they implement a feature to see what post/reasoning was used to justify the red label, and importantly with sources, then this is only going to be a hindrance to have installed if you want to find non-bigoted people. It's wrong worryingly often.

Unless you talk exclusively about issues relevant to transfemmes, then you're marked as transphobic. They're also way too quick to flag transfemmes as green just for simply being trans, often transmedicalists (aka people who think you're only "allowed" to be called trans if you get full gender affirming care, with all the gender affirming surgeries + HRT) will slip through and be green.

Likely that the people controlling it have serious biases against transmasc and enby people. That or the extension is entirely unmoderated, and has become compromised by automation/people doing false marks.

I've used Shinigami Eyes across different web browsers for several years now and it's a must-have add-on for online members of the LGBTQIA+ Community. Not only does it rely on user-based reports, but it may even help curb the effects of forming parasocial relationships with online personalities/influencers. It's a great tool for people doing research via search engine since specific news sites and information outlets can also be identified as trans-friendly or otherwise pro-LGBT+.

Extension is great for protecting my mental health. Please add support for Ecosia and Lemmy.
