by Maximion, 4 years agowhy so weird way for setting up filter rules? why not to support adding a mix of domains and subdomains and urls? why only one of them is allowed?

- Rated 3 out of 5by randomfixer, 2 months agoToo basic and the UX is terrible. But it does what it says.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Anthony Martin, 3 months agoGreat add-on but if you could control things at a finer-grained level (i.e. form history vs all history) it would be perfect.

- Rated 4 out of 5by DimitriPilot3, a year agoI'm using this to block the DeepL and Google Translate subdomains (which would generate URLs every time I changed my input) and it works just as I hoped.
There is no regex support, and the Full URL matching mode is a bit problematic, as the URL has to be an exact match all the way down to GET parameters (?foo=1) and even the anchor (#foo) at the end. Also if you input a full URL without the protocol (e.g. https://), it may inadvertently omit the first character of the subdomain you typed.
If this add-on had regex support or a whitelist containing full URLs that the blacklist shouldn't block, I would rate this 5 stars. As it stands, any subdomain I block doesn't get suggested or auto-completed in my address bar, which is a good thing for privacy but a bit unfortunate for my use case. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14721231, a year agoDoes exactly what it says no issues. Very simple to use

If HistoryBlock can block gmail history(History API), it will be perfect! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14399432, 4 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12370795, 4 years agoEXCELLENT, especially (in my case) to remove the history of selected Recently Closed Tabs, BUT, to set it up it's a bit awkward! Instead of putting it in contextual menu why don't you just add an icon in the toolbar (like every other add-ons??
