Hide Comments Everywhere
Description from store

Hide various commenting systems across the web, including (but not limited to) Disqus, YouTube, various news sites and forums, etc.

It's triggered when the page is first loaded, or the URL changes (you click a link), or the comments are injected into the page (Disqus and YouTube delay loading comments), or when you open the popup (via the extension icon in the toolbar) and choose to toggle a page or whitelist (allow) a new URL.

USAGE

The extension checks whether the loaded URL should block comments, then unblocks those URLs that match any regex patterns you've specified on the "options" page.

You can also specify a list of URLs as regex patterns, one per line, that should display comments all the time (the extension is effectively disabled for those URLs). Your list of excluded sites uses synchronized storage, so it should be available on any machine you've installed the extension on. (See: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions)

You can quickly add the URL of the current page by opening the extension popup (by clicking the icon in the toolbar), and then selecting a URL (or entering a custom one) and pressing the "Allow" button. Note that, unlike the "options" page, these URLs are entered normally and not as regular expressions.

Click on the icon in the toolbar and press the large "toggle" button to temporarily toggle enabling/disabling the extension for a single tab.

PERMISSIONS

You'll be notified that it can "read and change all your data on the websites you visit" because that's how it works - it hides certain comment-related elements on the page so you don't see them.

It also uses storage to save its state, but it shouldn't prompt you for that.

CONTRIBUTING

If you notice a commenting system that could be added (blocked), open an issue (see "support" link). Include the website where you noticed it, and I'll try to follow-up as time permits.

Additionally, if you're comfortable with regex and html/css, you could just create a pull request against the file that defines which sites and html elements are blocked, here: https://github.com/grantwinney/hide-comments-everywhere/blob/master/sites/sites.json

NEED HELP?

Have a question, comment or request?

Open a new issue (see "support" link) with as many details as possible. The more you let me know upfront, the less I'll have to ask later!

works perfectly. Useful if you want to read articles without getting sucked into all the hate and bitterness in comments sections!
Sting Meanie
Work perfectly.
Charles Chukwu
This is just perfect. If there would ever be a mobile version?
Josh Baer
Works pretty well, and the whitelist/blacklist feature is very handy. When I came across a site that was not responding no matter what I did, I emailed the developer and they responded within a few hours, and had fixed it! That's some quick and responsive service.

It's amazing. Now I can watch videos on YT without the dreaded comments pulling me down into a hate-filled rabbit hole since willpower doesn't seem to work. Thank you for this!
Ray
its good. it does hide comments but sometimes when you whitelist it still blocks. Be aware it will block ALL comments! even ones from educational websites such as blackboard! So if you aren't careful you could miss important information.
Gareth Williams
Doesn't work. Still looking for an alternative to Shut Up! which is unequivocally the best but has lately started tanking my Youtube performance (god knows how)
Zoe Gomer
Amazing

Great idea! but unfortunately (as always) not working me. I m very sad today... I need this for blocking Any comments on "social" (battle ) networks , facebook,instagram,twitter, youtube,and blogs ,everywhere in which one 'learn' to be offensive words and so on. socials comments should be disappeared the concept. I think someone should really do something . I feel sad this app don't solve my problem. I feel so stressed by all those comments. I think social networks love the hate and bad comments... it's time to clean this world from this. People get all angry each others and speak like the words they read. All bad words everywhere. It's really time to do something. I also think this should be on Android mobiles as well, as we spend more time to surfing on internet by the mobile.... I really wished this could work.... really... I hope the developer really will do something and for mobiles :(((

Wow, Iam surprised it works with twitter. I used to use another extension but it didn't work with twitter at all. great job. the internet can become a very overwhelmingly toxic space sometimes. This extension helps so much. It doesn't work on (hoyolab.com) though, is it possible to look into it and see if it could block comments there too?

The world is a cesspit of warped right wing views and hate. This plugin helps me not have to put up with seeing anymore of that bullsh*t.

I can't believe I've gone through my whole power-user life and not known this extension exists. I've used a CSS-injecting plugin to manually add `display: none !important;` to sites I don't wanna see comments on. This is sooooo much easier. I hope it will still work after Google enforces the stupidity that is Manifest V3.

Sırf toksiklerden kurtulmak için. Bir videoya giriyorum 1-2 tane toksik olsa dahi yine görmüyorum, rahatlıyorum. Mis gibi. Yorum yazanlar lütfen toksiklik yapmayın artık (video-kanal fark etmeksizin herkese söylüyorum).

Works like a charm to hide comment sections from social media sites, blogs, etc. As a developer, I'm actually impressed. Would be good to have a customizable "default" option. Currently, default is "hide" and you have to manually unhide, per tab, when you want to see the section. Ideally I'd just want to manually hide them when comment sections are too long and mess up scrolling experience.

It's 3 am, and once again you've found yourself going down a rabbit hole of rage and self-loathing as you've gotten into *yet another* internet argument with some troll in a comment thread. NO MORE. Download this extension, and forget the bathroom wall of the internet (the comments section) ever existed in the first place.

"Block URL" button seems to open a Github link that leads to a login page, as someone else said. Maybe it's a bug, but it doesn't seem to work in it's current state.
