on a lot of websites it seems fine, but its completely useless for tumblr. anyone supporting trans men gets marked red.
I don't know why other reviewers are saying this is false, I guess they don't use tumblr?

I've used this extension for years. It's been pretty useful, but lately the flaws have become too rampant to ignore.

A large number of people have been mistagged, with rabidly transphobic authors being marked as trans-friendly (often due to them having been reasonably trans-positive in the past) and people who aren't reasonably able to be described as bigots being marked as transphobic. Of note is that r/XenogendersAndMore is still tagged as transphobic, which is an issue that has been known for years and hasn't been fixed.

This leads me to believe that this extension simply isn't being maintained at all. Any kind of review process that may have once existed clearly no longer does. I'm not sure if it's because the developers got overwhelmed, or just abandoned the project, or whatever, but it appears that there's just no accuracy checking occurring anymore, outside of sheer mass of reports.

Given that, I can simply no longer recommend using this extension. With a lack of any kind of maintenance, quality checking, or anything else to ensure that tags stay accurate, it is far too open to abuse and will likely continue to decline in usefulness.

its far from flawless. but its nowhere near as bad as the low reviews make it seem; it remains one of the most useful extensions i have

important note: its extremely important to remember that some people may be transphobic but attempt to appear trans-friendly on the surface, which is what the review-bombings are getting wrong (it seems they rather burn down a useful tool then accept that trans people can still be transphobic, even if coated in progressive language).

it's been co-opted by racists to put down black trans women who speak up about white trans women fyi.

works well :3

It still works mostly as intended. Green links can be hit or miss but red links are accurate 100% of the time in my experience. The 1 star reviews are just mad people are actually starting to get called out on their transmisogyny.

Witnessed a significant number of instances recently of people being marked green while actively misgendering trans people, calling them slurs etc. and people being marked red despite the exact opposite behaviour. Not fit for purpose outside of certain public figures whose positions are already very obvious.

Completely useless. Every trans user I come across is false flagged as 'anti-trans.' Is there zero moderation on this thing? It's lost all functionality. I go to their profiles and there's obviously not a single transphobic post.

literally just transgender culture war stuff at this point. like actually. people just scroll the transandrophobia tag on tumblr and mark anyone who posts anything vaguely pro transmasc as red because it's turned into an us-vs-them shitshow. i'm marked red purely because i'm a trans man and tagged a single post with transandrophobia bc i'd seen some people i knew using it - i'm not even involved in discourse and i don't post about trans issues! i don't know a single trans man irl and basically half of my friends are trans women who came out because of me! i know on paper that doesn't mean shit but i'm the most comically non-transmisogynist guy out there, i just made a post saying that we shouldn't be mean to transmasc teenagers and suddenly i got 3 asks saying that i should kill myself and i'm marked red. so :/
anyway it's probably useful to know that in the ten minutes i've used this that i've seen actual terfs marked green because they mostly post about how much they hate transmascs and i've seen fandom accounts by thirteen year olds marked red because they post on the tag transmasc a lot. it's not a tool for detecting transphobia, at the MOST it could work for detecting some transmisogynistic users but it's just being weaponized to the point it's just a transmasc detector.

The people complaining about this extension being "intersexist" or "transphobic against anyone besides trans women" are angry that their intersexuality or transness does not give them a free pass to harass or echo TWERF rhetoric at trans women (or identify with TERF labels like "AFAB transfem"). You are not exempt from being transphobic or transmisogynistic just because you are intersex or trans. Cry about it.

This extension is fine for the most part (there are false flags but they're not to the extent that people think, all you have to do is reflag them). The review bomb campaign aims to take yet another tool trans women use to keep themselves safe, away. Just like they try to do with everything. Just ask any of these 1 star reviewers what they think of the terms TME/TMA.

This used to be good, but over the past few years, some transmisogynists from KiwiFarms have been using it to mark and harass trans people for the crimes of either also being furries or not transitioning out of fear of government persecution. If we don't accept them harassing us with terms like cissexual or their anti-furry nonsense, we're called tr**ns or whatever other slur they happen to think of that day.

Don't trust the 1-star reviews lol. 100% of them are trans MRAs who are mad that they were flagged for transmisogyny. Of course you should always do your own research and not trust an extension to do all the work for you, but 10 times outta 10, searching dogwhistles like "transandrophobia" on the blogs of these people whining "false flag!" will bring up a litany of transmisogyny. Stay mad, TMEs.

many of these one star reviews are incredibly misleading. often times, people who are "wrongly" labeled unsafe are hateful towards trans women, or refuse to acknowledge the privilege trans men have over them. they will launch harassment campaigns at innocent trans women for daring to be frustrated with how they are treated by those unaffected by transmisogyny. they are labeled unsafe for a reason.
