- Rated 1 out of 5by rose, 3 months agodevs who run the master list of green and red r marking intersex and transmasc ppl as "anti-trans", is discriminatory towards intersex ppl. trans ppl (perisex trans women in this case) r not immune to prejudice and it rlly shows here. dont use this extension, it lost its use once it started discriminating against intersex and transmasc ppl
- Rated 1 out of 5by Raven, 3 months agofor some reason a bunch of trans and intersex people are being marked red now for no apparent reason. i think anti-trans people found the extension and are weaponizing it
- Rated 1 out of 5by idonthack65, 3 months agoFound a lot of pro-trans pages improperly marked as transphobic, especially pages dedicated to transmascs. Apparently upon further research (and viewing numerous, COUNTLESS blogs marked as transphobic just for being SLIGHTLY pro transmascs) this is a very widespread issue. Removing this plugin as it is now completely useless. The only times I saw it be accurate was mark obvious centrist/right wing pages that well, OF COURSE WE KNOW are transphobic like the Guardian. Counterproductive to the internet experience.
- Rated 1 out of 5by IndiGhost77, 3 months agojust reported this app for targeting harassment against transmasc trans activists. to everyone calling the devs out on this, you're welcome. and to the devs: do better.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Tazel, 3 months agoThe five star reviews are full of misinformation. There has been a massive wave of transmasc trans rights activists being marked as unsafe, and no, it's not because they're doing or saying anything transmisogynistic. These are simply people who are speaking out about the struggles trans men face, and/or simply existing as trans men. The only way you could interpret that as not being safe is if you think all trans men are unsafe, which, I'm sorry to say, is an anti-trans viewpoint. It seems the people currently running the database only care about cis women and binary trans women, and either don't care about or actively despise all other identities. As other reviews have noted, intersex people are also being hit particularly hard. It used to be at least usable, and on paper it would be nice to have an extension like this that actualy works, but as the devs have made it, it's doing more harm than good.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Xaephia, 3 months agoMade unusable due to the devs' own active transphobia and unwillingness to moderate their own tool. Mass-"anti-trans"-flagging people who are themselves vocally trans-positive is now common. Used to be a good tool, is now entirely worthless.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17208283, 3 months agoThis used to be really helpful, but it's taken a disappointing turn.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Mara, 3 months agoThis extension claims to be trans-friendly, but in reality it is very transphobic. It specifically targets transmasculine and nonbinary people, and anyone who supports them.
There have been targeted hate campaigns against trans people, using this extension as their tool to do so. And when someone doesn't like a trans person, they mass-flag them as a means of social isolation and bullying, while mass-greening the transphobe to trick anyone on the outside looking in.
The developers are in support of the harassers because they do not value transmasculine or nonbinary people, and believe it is impossible for someone to be bigoted against those groups.
I highly recommend not using this extension. It is a tool for transphobes, bullying, and social control among individual groups. - Rated 1 out of 5by Lei, 3 months ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Erin K, 3 months agoIntra-community discourse has worsened targeting to the point of uselessness. Uninstalling.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Lifeeternal, 3 months agoRemoved my review for saying the devs hate transgender men and this app has been misused to mark transgender men, nonbinary people, and intersex people as red (antitrans). I can pull reciepts. I'm not playing around anymore, I'll keep putting my review back, or pursue legal action. Not a joke. Imagine dividing the trans community by lumping us in with terfs solely because we're not letting angry trans women bully us for things the cis patriarchy is doing to ALL OF US. Hypocrites. Edit: Also, if a trans woman disagrees with how people are talking about trans men, they've also been marked red. so. Edit 2: and don't call me a man if this is screenshotted or god forbid reported. Not one. Not AFAB either. Try again!
- Rated 1 out of 5by mimiuwuo7, 3 months agoI used to have this installed on all of my browsers, however recently I had to uninstall it because I've noticed an uptick in the intersex activists I've followed being marked red for the crime of..? Talking about how their experiences fall outside of the expected binary. The group targeting of people whos experiences fall outside of a specific framework sincerely horrifies me. It's really disappointing, because a year ago this app was genuinely rather helpful, but now it seems like it's just being used to cause further infighting in certain sects of the community.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Orange, 4 months agoI loved this for a long time, but frankly more and more the people I see appearing red are people I don't feel are justified for it. This extension amplifies the "us vs them" mentality that is currently splitting the trans community and it's getting out of hands.
I see genuinely good people, trans girls, getting marked red just because they have the very radical opinion that "hey maybe intersex people have their own struggles and we should leave them have a place to express it without giving them hate".
I also see intersex people, who root frequently FOR trans people (including trans woman) be red just because they talk about their struggle which are different than the ones of trans woman.
And finally, almost just being a trans masc gets you marked red. I don't really get it. I see trans guys just minding their own business, doing their own things, marked red. Very often.
This isn't what the extension should be used for. - Rated 1 out of 5by dingosaurus, 4 months agoLike many of the other people in the reviews, I've noticed that there has been a huge surge of of people marked red falsely--almost all of them transmasculine in some fashion.
This addon has become completely useless. It'd need a complete wipe of the database and a team of people working to actually review flags before allowing them through to make it helpful again, which is an enormous commitment. I'm honestly shocked there wasn't already some sort of system in place to prevent this given how easy it'd be for something like a transphobic 4chan raid to completely throw it off if they found out about it. It's disappointing hateful subsets of the trans community seem to have gotten there first but it really should have been expected, operating on the faith system is incredibly reckless when it comes to the online safety of vulnerable communities.
Youse need to either commit to doing better, or honestly you need to remove the app. It's actively harmful. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18095871, 4 months agoIt's very sad what this extension has become. It used to be helpful, but now it's being used as a weapon against certain trans people and it's impossible to tell whether a red link means an actual transphobe, or if it means a trans activist that whomever runs Shinigami Eyes - or the masses sending in reports - personally disagrees with on the details of that activism. Very disappointing things went this way. Uninstalling, of course.
- Rated 1 out of 5by AD, 4 months agoIn the beginning this seemed like a good idea with mostly only the community knowing about it but then terfs started using it to hunt down blogs and social media accounts, now all I see are people I know getting flagged despite their support for trans/LGBT people. Either it's terfs taking over the flagging system defeating the purpose of shinigami eyes or a change in the userbase on what they consider trans-friendly. I appreciate the help it gave in the beginning but won't be using it anymore
- Rated 1 out of 5by 30-wolves-in-a-trenchcoat, 4 months agoUnfortunately this is useless for filtering out terfs, because while it does an okay job at identifying obvious Anti-Trans people, it also marks TONS of clearly trans positive trans and intersex people as "Anti-Trans" for really ridiculous reasons.
Mostly it seems to target trans and intersex people that use contradictory labels (or seemingly contradictory labels) for themselves. I don't think it's a great idea to assume how someone thinks about trans people based on the words they use. Since terfs co-opt our terms ALL THE F-ing time.
At this point the extension is no longer a thing that keeps the trans community safe online, but instead a thing that divides us. - Rated 1 out of 5by Ry, 4 months agoThis extension used to be good, until it was abused to mark trans people of colour, transmascs, and intersex people as transphobic for no good reason
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15779913, 4 months agoNobody follows the guidelines. All it takes to get marked as trans-friendly is to say something like"trans people are okay" and to be marked anti-trans all you gotta do is piss off a specific group of people on tumblr. Used to be good but most of the time I ignore it because it's utterly useless. Besides, transphobes don't tend to hide anymore...
