3 years ago Thanks for the suggestions. I have this extension on hold for now because Google is forcing every browser to rethink how extensions are built and i want to make sure this project's use cases are still covered by whatever they decide, and that there's cross browser support. (Which is a pain point in the current implementation.)
Filtering anything out of a web search that isn't related to your search query - I think this is aligned with this extension.
Hi! Firstly, thank you very much for this amazing extension! I'm opening an issue because I have an idea for Google, that being the filtering of the news headlines that appear on Google web searches. I had this idea because I personally get incredibly distracted by the sport's news headlines in Google, always refreshing to see what's new, because there almost always will be something new there about every sports team I'm interested in. I tried filtering these headlines with Ublock Origin, but I think it's literally impossible. I'm not tech savvy, so I just go sicko on the element picker mode and, no matter how much or what I filter, the headlines always come back. Now, I know this might not be a very good idea, because maybe this is not be the kind of content disengaged is targetting, and It's ok if that's the case, I'm suggesting this just in case it isn't. (also, filtering the tweet previews from Twitter links on web searches might be a good idea, one I'm more confident you'll be interested in [thankfully, I managed to filter those with Ublock, so it's not an issue for me])
