Support the continuous development of this extension
I am working on this extension in my spare time. And although I don’t watch twitch.tv that much anymore, I still want people to be able to hide content they are not interested in. So as long as Twitch doesn’t offer a native way to achieve that, I will continue developing this extension and make it work with future updates to the twitch.tv website. If you want to support me, feel free to spread the word and/or consider donating (https://www.paypal.me/devservice/5eur). ❤️

Notice
Twitch is infamous for changing their website without further notice, which may break this extension over night. If you notice pages no longer working properly, disable the extension, report the issue and wait for an update.
It’s currently not blocking things it should be blocking in the “Manage Blacklist”. Whether it is a specific person’s channel, a tag, a game or a category, it’s not doing anything. Currently using your 20.11.2 version. I think something changed with twitch — must be why it isn’t working anymore. I suggest fixing because as it stands, it’s allowing everything through that it should be blocking.
I know you may be doing this to help people and I really appreciate it, I really do but could you maybe look into why it’s no longer working and update it? I ask because your extension is really the only one I’ve seen that is simplistic, fast, and effective.
We the users look forward to your future update.
It worked well until yesterday, but it doesn’t work from today.
I can see all blacklists on “live channels” page.
Also nothing happens when I toggled “Show X buttons”.
No longer works.
Twitch just doesn’t get a hint that I simply don’t want to see certain tags, even after blocking a few hundreds of channels manually. Well, no more.
Works great, finally i can block this boobie, slots/gambling and other clickbait streamers content
Allowed me to block Fortnite and Softcore Porn so literally must have for Twitch.
Works great 5/5
Wish there was a button to block the channel you are currently viewing.
Hello. Thank you for the awesome addon.
Just one lack of opportunity to hide channels from the search page results, for example, from page like this https://www.twitch.tv/search?term=undead%20legacy&type=channels.
excellent app for removing and forgetting about some of the most obnoxious faces on the website.
Works great. One suggestion: an option so that if a followed channel is playing a blacklisted game, that channel can be excepted from being hidden, since they are followed after all.
Used to work well but now it doesn’t anymore and I have to see furry streamers in my search results.
Godsend app. Trying to find Goth DJ streams and Twitch keeps pointing me towards streamers from Toronto!
Using Vivaldi which is based on Chromium, and this extension works great alongside FFZ. After going over to https://twitch.uservoice.com/ and voting for every Tag-filtering suggestion, I was lucky enough to stumble on this brilliant extension that does the job without waiting months, if not years, for Twitch to integrate the feature. Finally able to block vtuber content 🙂
꼴보기 싫은 적폐들 차단하니깐 기분이 좋네요 ㅎㅎ
Work fine till last couple of weeks. Doesn’t hide any channels/categories any more. Reinstalled addon and updated browser (Vivaldi) — same result. Used to like it a lot, hope it’ll be fixed.
08.10.2020 Работает отлично, просто спасение! Спасибо!!!
I don’t want to see League of Legends streams and I input League of Legends in Blacklisted Categories but it can’t block League of Legends streams. Why?
It doesn’t work. fix plz!!
Installed, added a channel I don’t want to see to the blacklisted channels list, channel still appears in my recommended channels. Does not work.
Used to work great but it has been completely useless for quiet some while (assuming its abandoned)
I’ve needed something like this for a long time and recently discovered this extension. I can’t believe Twitch hasn’t implemented something like this already. Thank you!
Amazing I love it could you make one for YouTube?
Thank you. Very useful to block games you don’t want to watch anyway. Like this new mobile game that all the streamers are sponsored to play.
Would be GREAT if it worked properly. Save simply clears the entire database or keeps the same entries without saving anything. Using the preferences is useless, using the X buttons to hide stuff directly on Twitch works though. This is something I really need, especially when everybody starts playing the same games for promotion..
Nice and easy.
Would be nicer if the grey X will only appear at mouseover instead of permanent.
