FAQs

I'm trying to use this as an unpacked extension and it isn't working?

Run bower install first to pull down the dependencies.

How do I activate the plugin?

Browse to a following/followers page on twitter and click the icon in the toolbar on Chrome. If it says you're not on a following/followers page, try refreshing the page and trying again.

How do I stop the blocking?

Click "Done"

How do I figure out who I blocked, and who they were following/followed by?

Right click the extension icon in Chrome and click Options. You can view all blocks made on this page, including searching by username. Blocks are stored locally, and not synced to the cloud.

To Do / Possible Features

  • Option to mute users instead of blocking them.
  • Option to skip users that are following you, but you are not following them.
