X-Ray: Block Tweets by Real Location
I built a Chrome extension that lets you filter tweets by country. X recently added "Account based in [Country]" to profiles, so the location data is publicly available — X-Ray uses it to show location badges on every tweet and lets you blur or block tweets from selected countries. There's no native way to do this on X yet (though they're reportedly building one). So I built it. Tech: Chrome Extension (Manifest V3), Node.js backend, PostgreSQL. The extension intercepts X's GraphQL API responses to extract location data, caches it to avoid rate limits. It's free, 170+ countries, 9 languages.…

What it does

Filter out engagement bait and politics on your X/Twitter feed2025 · unbaited.danielpetho.com · ▲71hi friends! i'm pretty tired of engagement bait and all the political nonsense on my x/twitter feed. i was curious if i could use an llm to filter out these type of content, so i prototyped a quick chrome extension. it uses LLama 3.3 to analyze the tweet through https://groq.com/ (because they are super-super fast). the extension is available in the chrome store, also there is a link to the repo. - you can tweak the system prompt for the filtering - but you need your own API key from Groq (you can get one for free)
I removed politics from Twitter with AI2024 · mindfw.com · ▲40I'm sure you all saw the debate a few days ago, alongside all the tech influencoors giving their mid-takes about politics. Doesn't it get tiring? That's why I built mindfirewall a chrome extension that uses AI to filter out tweets. You'll never have to see politics, war, or negativity on your timeline again. In the future you'll be shocked you even allowed this stuff into your brain in the first place. Let me know what you think below, does it feel too much like censorship? would you use this?

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
