Rated 2 out of 5
ruma LinuxCat, fyrir 2 árum síðanI would like this extension if it worked. However, apart from the "who to follow" popup on the right of an account's page, there is badge like there is on the screenshots. I'll change my review once this is fixed, this is kinda sad :'(

- Rated 1 out of 5ruma n/a, fyrir ári síðanThe vast majority of accounts show "unknown" and I have to click and wait for over a minute to get a report, which sometimes never happens. Also, a very obvious bot was marked as "normal", so it's not even reliable when all the stars are aligned. Uninstalled after a few minutes.
- Rated 1 out of 5ruma sha-265, fyrir 2 árum síðanWhy this important extension is closed source? Not making sense at all
- Rated 4 out of 5ruma Firefox okisanel 15838614, fyrir 2 árum síðanWorks great in Win 11 with Firefox 118.0.1 (64-bit). Its rating scale is from 0 to 100, so it's not like it provides a binary judgment. Use your own judgment with this as a tool.
Slightly aggravating that it gives me a score of 18%, but could be because I use adult language on Twitter.
The reviews here stating political bias are unfounded, zero evidence claims from users who are likely bad-faith reviewers. - Rated 4 out of 5ruma deghbtefrhbgetdgbhefrsdb, fyrir 2 árum síðanIf you are annoyed as I am with this 'unknown' banner and want only useful stuff to be displayed add this to your adguard custom filter:

- Rated 5 out of 5ruma Firefox okisanel 17697660, fyrir 2 árum síðanThis project is what makes the twitter experience saner. When you came across a problematic account it helps to understand so and if you need to engage with such account, you know what to expect from such account.
There is no GDPR violation using it as all the info it gets is already freely available via twitter and its users public conversations!
The reviews calling this out, are the ones that want to create chaos and division and simultaneously aren't respecting mozilla's own review guidelines.
Going to bot sentinel webpage one gets lists of many classified account and you can browse the accounts and see for yourself the way they engage with others.
And non partisan means that you can be a die hard communist, center on the political spectrum or extreme right, no matter what, if you engage in ways that are problematic, this will classify you as such by analyzing your PUBLIC tweets! Key word here being PUBLIC.
#SayNoToHate - Rated 5 out of 5ruma Firefox okisanel 14858169, fyrir 2 árum síðanI *super* enjoy how this tags people in my timeline and lets me just skip over the accounts that exist to raise trouble, and focus on the accounts that display sanity.
- Rated 1 out of 5ruma Bound4Earth, fyrir 2 árum síðanThis add-on claims to help detect bots and misinformation, except reality proves it detects no bots, unless you are going against their narrative.
Google Bot Sentinel and Amber Heard/Meghan Markle and watch the credibility of this add-on being against misinformation crumble.
Use an addon similar to this, but why use one that has an agenda? - Rated 5 out of 5ruma Bella, fyrir 3 árum síðan

- Rated 1 out of 5ruma Dankusmemus, fyrir 3 árum síðanDo not use this tool, It's evil. It is made to protect a certain narrative. It will label you a bot if you don't fall in line. Also it has violated GDPR Law
- Rated 1 out of 5ruma Elvey, fyrir 3 árum síðanBAD! DANGER! There are claims in old reviews that this accesses history, but I see no evidence of that. HOWEVER, the access given to counter.social suggests malware. That domain is connected to hacktivist The Jester and not twitter, so Bot Sentinel includes features that aren’t necessary for the extension’s purpose.
Also, the redundant sites listed in permissions (4 under twitter.com even though entire domain and all subdomains are already under entry 2) push counter.social off so it's usually hidden at AMO. That's VERY suspicious on its own. Interesting that the (in)famous RAND Corporation kinda endorses it.
UPDATE:This also eats CPU. In Firefox's Process Manager (URL: about:processes), the Extensions process was pegged at 100% CPU while I had this active and dropped to negligible after I disabled it. - Rated 5 out of 5ruma bit, fyrir 3 árum síðan

- Rated 5 out of 5ruma Livefats, fyrir 4 árum síðanBrilliantly useful: it allows you to identify inauthentic and problematic Twitter users when using Twitter, which means you can block, mute and report as necessary. Don't do Twitter without it!

- Rated 5 out of 5ruma A1tam0nt, fyrir 4 árum síðanAn excellent extension that does exactly what it says on the tin, every time. A handy way to swat bots and get rid of fake followers.
I'd even go as far as saying it's ESSENTIAL for browsing Twitter these days. - Rated 5 out of 5ruma MaryBeth Meszaros, fyrir 4 árum síðanThe best! I block disruptive and problematic tweeters from the outset.
