This is one of the best and most useful extensions, but I noticed that it breaks/hidden the publishing panel in the Community tab on YouTube :(

This is a pretty essential add-on but please make it harder to turn off. Just require me to retype a random string of 16 characters or something. Save us!

Does not block comments on CNN.com, which uses the OpenWeb system.

Works really well! For example you can allow comments on reddit but disable them on youtube and it will remember that! Thank you for making this!!!!

Muito obrigado estranho. Por fazer esta extensão e melhorar muito a minha vida na internet.

Huge fan of this add-on! It works great, keeps me from getting sucked into the never-ending negative comment stream on sites like YouTube. Super easy to turn off but I don't plan to!

特定のコメントを消すのではなくコメント欄そのものを消すアプリです。

The internet is such a nicer place with this add-on. Nice to be able to quickly turn it on and off, even though once it's on you'll want to keep it that way.

I love this so far. I hear it's easy to turn it off but I'll avoid finding out how. This just improved life remarkably.

Does what it says well but I wish it wasn't so easy to turn off. The temptation is too great.

On behalf of folks like me, who are battling internet addiction (or would perhaps like to get away from the internet) and end up reading the comments section of just about any site (including youtube), a huge thank you for creating this addon. Works in Reddit and notalwaysright.com (disqus) and most sites. Pity there is no android version.

This addon has always worked wonderfully, however, since a week or so it has issues with it intermittently not working. It also stops working after ten seconds or so, meaning I have to refresh the page before I can activate/deactivate the addon. I believe this is due to a conflict with the latest Firefox update and I hope it gets fixed soon. It's a fantastic addon when it works!

EDIT: It seems to be working now, thanks for the update! Though still, there's also the problem of the addon not working with Alternate Player for Twitch.tv (chat is hidden and Shut Up can't be turned off), but if you don't use that addon, it works well.

Previous review: I can't recommend this as for now. I loved this addon and used it for years until it stopped working reliably anymore after the recent update. Something I noticed is that it would stop working after a few mins viewing a youtube video. I haven't tested if this only happens with videos or viewing a page in general, however. I only had ublock active at the time.

I've been using Comment Blocker for awhile on Chrome and just installed it on Firefox. Works like a dream on both browsers. There are several sites I love to visit, but the comments section are so vile that it ruins the experience and makes me tired of people. This add-on is a game changer and I can't recommend it enough. I was surprised to see how different the experience is and how much better I feel without suffering through everyone's opinion on whatever today's outrage is.

Not working atm? Otherwise the one Firefox plugin (and iOS app!) I couldn't do without.
