For those who don’t know, it’s a browser extension that marks a link to a group or person determined by how they act towards trans people.
I personally like this concept, but after reading the reviews on its Firefox add-ons page, it let me a bit worried. I found a Reddit post with one person commenting that someone marked their friends’ blog as unwelcoming due to personal beef. On that same post, people were writing about how they used it just as a “suggestion”.
So, returning to the question in the title, do you personally find this extension reliable/usable? Does it could have anything that should be worked better?
Been using it for a few years, it’s nice to have. Not the most reliable, but sometimes when youtube recommends random channels or stuff it can be helpful to quickly mark bigots as do not recommend me.
I think it works great and allows me to avoid engaging with problematic individuals and organizations.
I wish Lemmy and the third party apps had the feature.
Peertube could use it too!
I hope it gets expanded to Ebay, Etsy, Amazon, Steam, Play Store, App Store. That would really hurt those fake pink capitalists.
Too bad I use an iPhone I can’t use the extension as it only works on the gecko engine of Firefox. Android wins in this case.
It once put my username in red while I was a moderator on a trans subreddit. That was an interesting time
Don’t like it. I know a lot of people who got marked red because of some personal drama, or for things they used to believe but no longer do, and they keep getting accused of being transphobic with no other reason than being marked red on shinigami eyes. Plus I don’t agree with the guidelines on what counts as transphobic, like it says afab transfem is a transphobic troll identity that should be marked red, but afab transfem and amab transmasc are actual identities used by intersex people who have a more complicated relationship with their asab
anyway apparently the wikipedia page for okra is marked red
Okra doesnt show up as red on my end.
