- Rated 1 out of 5by Elisavet, 16 hours agoMy experience is that almost every trans individual who is intersex, POC, and/or nonwhite and who speaks openly in favour of trans rights has been marked red in this app.
Abuse of the app is rampant and uncontrolled to a point that it feels it is by design. I'm really tired of seeing actual trans activists getting put in the same boat as JKR. It's demoralizing how much this app exacerbates intra-community tensions by allowing petty users to mark anybody whose vibes they just don't like as "anti-trans". - This extention has become horrifically weaponized by transphobes and radicals. It is inaccurate, outdated, and impossible to maintain in its current state.
Transphobes- primarily TERFs- have overrun the extention and turned it into their own personal list of people they don't like. It is a weapon being used to divide the Queer Community. It heavily targets trans men, transmascs, intersex and nonbinary people, as well as transfems and allies who disagree with TERFs. These targetings are doubled against people of color, because it's also extremely racist!
There are many cases where calling for death and/or detransitioning of certain subsections of trans people will keep you marked green if it isn't aimed at trans women. Tell me how wishing death upon any trans people makes you a safe, supportive ally worthy of trust?
The pure hatred and vitriol I've seen coming from some people while they remain as marked 'safe' is disgusting.
Speaking out about your own oppression as a non-transfem? You get marked red.
Supporting masculine trans people and affirming them? You get marked red.
Saying that enforcing strict binaries (such as TME/TMA, AFAB enby/AMAB enby, etc.) is intersexist, transphobic, inaccurate, and disgusting? You get marked red.
Simply using the word "transadrophobia" without bashing it can get you marked red. They're that petty.
Many trans women, transfems, and cis allies have been marked red as well for defending their trans/intersex brothers and siblings. A lot of people claim this addon is useful for rooting out transmisogyny when it's not even good at doing that! Regardless, the extention was created with the intent to mark ALL transphobic content and individuals. Why is only one branch of it being so heavily prioritized now?
This extention is antithetical to creating a safe and unified online environment for trans people. It is dangerous. I'm not sure if there's any good alternatives to this extention, but please don't waste your time and DON'T use Shinigami Eyes.
We can do better. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19539583, 4 days agoUsed to be very helpful but is clearly being used to target people someone doesnt agree with. I say that as a transfem who is hating seeing it used against my trans siblings.
- Rated 1 out of 5by cheeseflavor, 5 days agoUsed to really love this extension. Sadly, it's no longer reliable, and it seems as though there are issues with flagging these days. The vast majority of tumblr pages that I see flagged as red are explicitly trans friendly or often even trans themselves. There definitely seems to be a bias against transmasc/nb/intersex users. Not to mention the many green pages I've seen that are straight up homophobic to all LGBT people. Go back to using your critical thinking skills. I am uninstalling after years of use.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19534951, 7 days agoin theory useful but the people who currently decide who is and is not "transphobic" for this addon are hateful people who want you to trust their information unquestioningly. there is no way to see why someone is marked red or green, and many outspoken transgender people and activists are marked red for no apparent reason. do not use this extension if you actually want to avoid transphobes

- Rated 1 out of 5by Jess, 19 days agohow is this even allowed is beyond me. the intention is obvious. the premise is dangerous. there was a time where people got marked for their identity... in germany.
- Rated 1 out of 5by robinbird, 19 days agoThis is an abusive extension that marked my trans activist friend as transphobic and some transphobe i know as GREEN
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14973578, 23 days agoWhile a good idea in theory, this extension has become completely useless due to a variety of factors leading the information it provides to be unreliable. The main issues are as follows:
- There is no system to view the reason why someone is marked as either pro-trans or anti-trans; the extension instead expects you to trust its opaque data set without question. I'd find it hard to trust any source which makes bold claims regarding a person's bigotry (or lack thereof) without at least one specific example.
- The voting data is processed using an imprecise algorithm known as a "bloom filter" which has a tendency to erroneously categorize people in either the pro-trans or anti-trans category when there aren't actually any votes to support that.
- The anonymous voting is incredibly susceptible to false flags, particularly from exclusionist subgroups within the trans community. This leads to many transmasc, nonbinary and intersex people being marked as anti-trans in retaliation for pushing back against hatred directed towards them, while the people who spread that hate are marked as trans-friendly.
The result of this is a once useful tool becoming a vector for character assassination (whether intentional or not) of vulnerable trans people within our own community. I would not consider recommending this unless all of the above points are meaningfully addressed. - Rated 1 out of 5by PaytheToll, 23 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by trangener :), a month agowhile this works fine on other sites, on social medias it has become completely unusable. violent TERFs are marked green, while intersex activists or transmasculine people are marked red. i've seen people be marked green while saying they wish for the corrective r*pe of trans men or are advocating for the coercive correction of intersex people. absolute insanity. this extension does nothing but to stroke the egos of violent transphobes at this point.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Cerbera, a month agoFlags trans and intersex people as red. It clearly has bias against anyone who speaks out against transandrophobia and intersexism.
- Rated 1 out of 5by niko, a month agothis extension is openly anti-ftm, anti-intersex, and anti-black. routinely flags actual trans people while transphobes are marked green. also does not tell you why someone is marked red or green.
- Rated 1 out of 5by SudoVL172089, a month agoTransphobic devs that exclude intersex/FtM people.
it's also just inaccurate as shit.
Doesn't tell you why somebody was marked red, either. - Rated 1 out of 5by Robin, a month agoIt used to be useful, but at this point so many trans folks (including trans feminine people and trans women!) are marked as red these days. The red markers tend to skew toward trans masculine or intersex people, and often crypto-terfs will mark themselves as green. All this does is cause confusion.
Ultimately this needs better moderation, and, preferably, a way to mark individual authors, contributors, and individuals instead of entire news sources or websites. It's kind of jarring to see an article about trans resources marked as red solely because it's on a website that was deemed wholly transphobic, rather than the individual authors of the articles. - Rated 1 out of 5by boxofvoidkittens, a month agoDoesn't seem to work? Claims to detect antitrans sentiments, routinely does not do that, flags transgender people as antitrans for speaking about their experiences with transitioning. Is this some kind of fake app/virus?
