A Firefox add-on to strip Google search results of 'blacklisted' URLs

Visit github.com ↗Alternativestop 1% of May 2020

In plain words

This Firefox add-on filters Google search results by removing URLs that users designate as "blacklisted." It lets people automatically exclude specific websites from their search results, reducing clutter and improving search relevance. The tool is useful for anyone who wants to customize their Google searches by hiding unwanted domains or low-quality sources. Available since 2020, the add-on is open-source and hosted on GitHub.

    Yesterday the top upvoted comment for "Why We Desperately Need a New (and Better) Google" http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2057772 was adding personal domain blacklists. I offered to build this if there was enough interest so here's a minimum viable product for Chrome (Firefox soon to follow): https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/jiicbcimbjppjbckmoknagndlhjbeohb. Your feedback is welcome!

    Sometimes you might want to share a screenshot of the website you're on, without revealing the personal data that is visible at that time. With Obfuscate, you can make text unreadable without changing the structure of the web page. Hit the extension button or press Alt+Shift+O to activate for the current page. (Note that extensions can't modify the add-on website, so trying it on there won't work.) Credit for the original idea: https://chaos.social/@maris/108379386421123630
