- (2024-12-31) C Miya: It doesn't work as expected. It filters the first thig in the list, not the message that is selected, like how the normal "Filter Messages Like This" works. It is easier for me to use the way Google made it, unfortunately.
- (2024-11-25) Tommi Contursi: Thank you! This should be a defaul feature in Gmail but unfortunately it is not and requres so many clicks to do without this plugin. I appreaciate a lot!
- (2024-09-05) Andrew Moffitt: Brilliant extension, and long overdue. The "Filter Messages Like This" feature in Gmail is invaluable, because it lets you find relevant messages much more easily and it facilitates de-cluttering your Inbox. The fact that it's cumbersome to use is a serious deficiency in Gmail's design, and this extension overcomes that deficiency very well. My only gripe so far is that it doesn't seem to work if you're looking at your Inbox, even if you've selected the message you want to filter. You need to open that message and then press the shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+F) from inside that message. If you do this from the Inbox, it just seems to filter the top message, regardless of what you're pointing at or what you've selected.
