- Rated 5 out of 5by Andre Bell, a year agoCan't imagine using FF without this. So many sites add obtrusive overlays and annoying sliders that make the use of those sites less than enjoyable. This removes those annoyances temporarily, until the page is reloaded. Remove permanently would be awesome. But this will do.

- Rated 1 out of 5by The Voice Inside Your Head, 5 years agoHas no memory of what was removed previously. Make it remove an object, reopen the browser to the same web page and the object returns. Make it so the same object removed is removed for the entire URL. Create a menu icon that lights up when something is blocked by a rule, for easier access. Otherwise this extension is just a bothersome time waster.

- Rated 3 out of 5by ander, 6 years agoIt works much more reliably than Nuke Anything Enhanced, the extension I previously used. What I don't care for is that, unlike NAE, it doesn't highlight the object it's offering to remove—so on pages with many objects in the same area, you just have to take your chances. It also gives you no option to add objects to a personal list, so you must re-remove them each time you visit that page. If these features were added, I think it'd be a 5-star add-on.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Markus Zeller, 6 years agoWorks great, but the Hotkey ALT+SHIFT+R is not working on any site (Win10, FF 63.0.3). Context Menu is working well.
- Rated 3 out of 5by bridgerman, 6 years agoIt's good add-on but compare to HackTheWeb they give us the red border around object to select what to remove.

- Rated 1 out of 5by anon_private, 7 years agoI would like to know why it is necessary to agree to personal information being available to the programme, before it can be installed. Are there any security issues associated with this action?
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13787803, 7 years agoWould love to have the removing of objects permanent. Would use it all the time if that could happen
- Rated 3 out of 5by NetVicious, 7 years agoWorks very good. But I love the old "Remove It Permanently" addon how did the same but we can set it to do the same eliminations of elements each time we visit the same webpage without the need to do it each time.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 6202631, 7 years agoIt will remove something, sometimes after a couple of tries, but you have to re-do it every time you load the page. There was an old extension called "remove it permanently" that was pretty sweet.
- Rated 3 out of 5by velcromango, 7 years agoCould we get the ability to remove an element site wide or domain wide?
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13403666, 7 years agoI like this extension a lot--I would very much like to be able to save the changes between sessions, so I don't have to keep killing the same things over and over. If we could generate a text file with the changes in it, it would be nicely portable between installs, and shareable as well.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Patrick Abi Salloum, 7 years agoHello there, I am the author of Nuke Anything Enhanced, I wish you had contacted me before doing this, I had been updating the add-on to use Web Extensions and adding features in anticipation of the Firefox 57 release! Just released the new version this weekend.
Do you want to join efforts and become a collaborator for the original add-on? Instead of duplicating the effort?
In all cases great work, and sorry I did not have time to update earlier.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks for the offer! I've been using NAE for years, so I'm glad you updated it in time for Firefox 57.
Working together to improve NAE sounds like an interesting idea. What plans do you have for it? I'd be willing to help if it's just maintenance and the occasional new feature, but I can't really contribute beyond that because I already have other projects to work on. - Rated 5 out of 5by Yadn, 7 years agoThank you so much for this add on, I'm supportive of all the changes coming with FF57 but still I was contemplating with some dread the loss of Nuke Anything Enhanced. There's so much junk on some pages you need something like this to just get a proper reading experience. And then you came ;) Bliss...
A small suggestion: compared to NAE, Remove Anything add a submenu level. On a laptop with trackpad, this slows down a tiny bit the act of nuking an element. OTOH, it's nice to have all the RA commands in one place and not clutter too much the submenu. Would it be possible to have a keyboard shortcut to nuke the element at point, under the mouse? Then the common operation would be even faster and convenient than with NAE, with mouse free nuking.
Again, thank you so much!Developer response

I agree that it would be better to have at least the "Remove this object" item in the main right-click menu, but this doesn't seem to be possible with the WebExtensions API according to Mozilla's documentation: "If you have created more than one context menu item or more than one tools menu item, then the items will be placed in a submenu." (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/menus)
Adding a keyboard shortcut is a good idea! I've just now implemented this and released version 1.3 with this feature. - Rated 5 out of 5by happysurf, 7 years agoDoesn't work on Firefox 52.3 ESR on Windows.
EDIT: The version 1.2 fix the problem.
Simple and useful.
Suggestion:
Will be great have a feature for remove multiple element.
Thanks.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThis will be fixed in the next update (1.2). Thanks for letting me know!
