I have the 'suggestions' box marked on my settings but Suggested posts continue to show up. I'm using the app on the Safari browser on my Mac. Am I misunderstanding what the 'suggestions' setting is supposed to block.

Thanks for flagging this, will have a look!

Ah, it's because the thing it's targeting is this: image

I'll rename it to 'Suggested follows'?

Can you post a screenshot of what you mean by 'suggested posts'?

Hi,

Thanks so much for the response and for creating this extension. For hopelessly compulsive people like me any tools are helpful with this stuff. The picture below is what I'm referring to. So as I scroll my feed I get to the point where I've seen all the newer posts from accounts I follow and then this section of suggested posts is there with all types of content. It's basically the equivalent of the youtube recommended videos section and is just as addictive! Do you think there is a way to block those kinds of posts from view without blocking the whole feed?

Thanks, Danny [image: Screen Shot 2024-07-22 at 12.11.41 PM.png]

Cannot see any attachment in my email inbox --- think you replied to an email inbox that cannot be replied to (ie. those sent out automatically by github :) ) Are you able to email me directly at ulrik.lyngs@cs.ox.ac.uk?
