   I made a Chrome extension to clean up your Gmail inbox locally▲96

   Hi everyone, My motivation for building this was to address the trouble of mass unsubscribing from unwanted emails and deleting bulk emails while ensuring privacy and control over the process. With this Chrome extension, emails are not sent to any external servers. All calls to the Gmail API happen locally on your device. Feedback and suggestions are welcome!

    Apparent for Gmail▲225

    I got frustrated with Gmail's lack of customization, and built an extension for myself. It doesn't do much other than modify how Gmail is displayed in Chrome. Does it as minimally as possible (that I can engineer). Done locally, zero remote processing. Currently built the following settings (want to add more soon): Conversations: * Show newest message first * Show every message in a thread (sometimes they're collapsed into numbered bubbles) * Remove AI overviews (retches) Layout/UI: * Minimize the search & top bar * Minimize the far left "rail" (Mail/Chat/Meet) * Hide a bunch…

    A FOSS chrome extension that attempts to remove the annoyance of cookie pop ups and banners. There are some extensions out there that auto-accept cookies, but I didn't find one that auto rejected cookies without either chaining some extensions together or setting up custom rules in tools like uBlock origin.
