- Rated 5 out of 5by TehDash, a year agoAmazing work. I'd really appreciate it if you could make this work in tandem with the Old Twitter 2023 addon though? With both of those active at once Twitter may actually be usable again

- Rated 5 out of 5by burgers, a year agoThis addon is absolutely essential to use current-state, Musk controlled Twitter and to limit/stop the viewing of hate speech, negativity, misinformation, etc. often shared from Twitter Blue ("checkmark" or "Verified Account") users and more.
As of this writing I've blocked over 14k checkmark accounts (since April-May) which will continue to increase as I use twitter normally. I've personally recommended Blue Blocker far and wide to anyone who uses Twitter on a regular basis.
The only potential downside to this addon that I've noticed is that some users, such as artists and various creatives who do utilize Twitter Blue *only* to increase their reach, will also be blocked; obviously this is by design. You will have to follow/unblock these people manually if not use the "safelist import" feature and/or adjust other options.
If you're looking for a better, less negative Twitter experience and don't yet want to abandon the platform now or in the future(???), Blue Blocker is the addon to get. - Rated 5 out of 5by Merak Bear, a year agoWorks exactly as described, and has made my timeline much cleaner. It's nice because (since blocks work Twitter-side and not device-side), any blocks this extension makes on desktop will of course carry over to mobile.
The only thing I would love to see on this extension would be a way to see a list of users it has blocked (rather than just the queue). It's blocked a few folks I didn't really intend for it to block (not the extension's fault; just people I wasn't following or thinking about when I installed it), and I don't always catch the pop-ups, so it would be nice to have a list of blocked accounts that I could go back and review periodically. But that's such a minor gripe, and it's not really anything WRONG with the extension; just something I'd like to see. So definitely still giving it 5 stars because it's worth it!Developer response
posted a year agohello, as of v0.3.4, you can click the block count in the context menu (the menu that's opened by clicking the extension icon in your browser toolbar) to open a full history of all users blocked by the extension and why. note that this history is installation-specific, so your history will vary on different devices if you use more than one. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17494439, a year ago

posted a year agohey! I would check this issue and see if this matches any of your settings: https://github.com/kheina-com/Blue-Blocker/issues/156#issuecomment-1613798589
if that doesn't match/fix your issue, please make an issue on GitHub and we'll look into it https://github.com/kheina-com/Blue-Blocker/wiki/How-To-Make-An-Issue- Rated 5 out of 5by Rose, a year agoThank you very much for this awesome addon!
It's a shame we need something like this, but hey-ho. The ability to skip old legacy accounts is appreciated, as is the custom follower limiter. Makes it easier to avoid blocking potentially non-garbage accounts, while also still getting rid of $8 idiots with 12 followers. I'm also liking the newly added promoted tweet blocker. Ever since rocket clown took over, my timeline has been flooded with "life coaches" and crypto scam garbage.
If only this worked on mobile too! Thank you again! - Rated 1 out of 5by Rigel, a year agoEDIT 6/8/24: no longer works D: ive tried restarting my whole comp, logging in and out of twitter, uninstalling and reinstalling the extension, clearing my cache.. it just doesnt add anything to the block queue anymore
og: this thing rules. i was wondering, is it possible to use the same queuing code for tweet nuking? i miss MegaBlockDeveloper response
posted a year agomaybe? it's all open source, so if someone wants to make it happen then go for it. there's already a way to import additional users into the block queue and I'm working on making the queue a lot more efficient so you can load up those lists of every twitter blue user ever. in addition to that, other addons can integrate with blue blocker by either sending sending users to block directly to the queue or by having blue blocker send users to check against - Rated 2 out of 5by Vicente, a year agoIt seems to work for everyone else, but it stops randomly for me and doesn't restart. I've only managed to block a handful of blue ticks.

posted a year agothis sounds like you're experiencing a weird bug, could you go to the blue block github and make an issue so we can look into it? https://github.com/kheina-com/Blue-Blocker/wiki/How-To-Make-An-Issue
