Works fine

works well, still lets you see and unhide which content it has blocked. It's craazy more than 50% of my feeds posts are blocked content. and it's all trash. It also doesn't interact with other extensions in my browser so I can use them together.
I like that it has github so people can review code, Im not programmer I hope a programmer here reviews this
