DeFeed – Defeat the algorithm

Defeat the algorithm. Filter YouTube, X, Reddit, Facebook and Hacker News by keyword, author or site. Fast and private.

Your feed, your rules. DeFeed hides the posts you don't want to see on YouTube, X, Reddit, Facebook and Hacker News – by keyword, author or site – before you scroll past them. WHY DEFEED • Fast. Built to not slow down infinite scroll. Filtering takes about 0.02 ms per post, so pages stay smooth even after thousands of posts. • Private. Everything runs on your computer. No account, no tracking, no servers. Your rules sync only through your own Chrome sync. • One extension, five sites. One set of rules works everywhere, and you can turn each site on or off. FILTER YOUR WAY • Keywords: whole words, case- and accent-insensitive. Add * to catch other word forms (elect* also hides election and elected). Advanced users can use /regex/. • Authors and channels: @usernames, channel names, subreddits, pages. • Sites: hide posts that link to a domain, e.g. medium.com. • Hide or dim: remove posts completely, or fade them so you can still peek with your mouse. • Show only: on any site, keep only the posts that match the words you choose. • Temporary rules: mute a topic for 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days – perfect for spoilers or news waves. They switch themselves off. ONE CLICK, RIGHT ON THE POST Hover any post and click ✕ to hide just that post, or everything from that author. Undo is always one click away. SEE WHAT WAS FILTERED "What did DeFeed filter?" shows only the hidden posts on the page, each labelled with the rule that caught it. Caught something by mistake? Mark it "Never hide this post" or remove the rule right there. SMART SUGGESTIONS Hide three posts from the same author or about the same word, and DeFeed suggests turning it into a rule. Worked out on your computer – no AI, no data sent anywhere. YOUR WEEK A weekly report shows how many posts you skipped, roughly how much scrolling time you saved, and which rules did the work. Share it as an image if you like. PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED DeFeed only runs on the five supported sites. It needs "storage" to keep your rules and "scripting" to start filtering in tabs that were already open when you installed it. Found a bug or have an idea?
