- Rated 3 out of 5by bladeshot, 5 years agoWorks great, but some websites slow down immensely to the point of unusable
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14994764, 6 years agoI know you're working on performance issues, and it's great because as of now it's nearly unusable on many sites (mostly the dynamic ones, that get very slow while loading content, and after to much content has been loaded). A temporary workaround could be to allow disabling the add-on on user specified websites. Not sure if the "White list" feature is supposed to do that but it's not working on my side. Keep up the good work :)
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14791374, 6 years agoIt does the job and is very aggressive at protecting you from spoilers, but slows down the browser to a crawl. Facebook/Reddit is unusable. It works but this desperately needs performance improvements.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14790876, 6 years agoIt's working good - the UI is pretty confusing though (everything could be much simpler).
Worst part is that it slows down things - especially keyboard input. - Rated 3 out of 5by furiousgeorge984, 6 years agoWorks great with Firefox desktop (although it slows the browser down a little bit). Does not work on Firefox for Android. It installs and then gives no options for adding keywords etc. to actually block spoilers. Only options given are "disable" and "uninstall."
Developer response
posted 6 years agoWhen you press the 3 dot in the top rigth of firefox on mobile, you can see the spoiler protection 2.0 in the bottom of the menu - Rated 3 out of 5by OtterGauze, 6 years agoGreat idea, but it is HORRIBLE when it comes to website performance. Websites such as YouTube and Reddit become practically unusable. I love that these devs are wanting to protect people from spoilers as well as themselves, and I appreciate that greatly, but please make performance improvements.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Gwill, 6 years agoWhile it blocks wonderfully it also slows down the browser to a crawl. Using it on Facebook is hopeless.
Also it does not allow for case sensitive keywords, that means that blocking "GoT" which is an essential phrase at the moment, also blocks "got" which is such a common word that half the Internet is censored.
I like the look and feel, and it's easy to understand what's being blocked without spoiling in the process.
The ability to whitelist pages helps a lot. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13614205, 7 years agoit work great but it slows firefox sooooo much :(
