Item media 1 (screenshot) for Hemlock

Overview

A precise dose of silence — remove references to specified people from web pages.

This extension is open source, you can investigate it's inner workings and suggest changes to the default list. Hemlock scans page content as it loads and removes elements that mention names on your blocklist. It handles both static pages and dynamically loaded content (infinite scroll, SPAs). Removed elements include the surrounding card, article, or list item — not just the text. ## Features - **Preset blocklists** across several categories, fully customizable - **Custom entries** — add anyone or anything you want to filter - **Custom buckets** — organize your blocklist however you like - **Per-page and aggregate stats** — see what was filtered, without showing you the names - **Context menu** — highlight text, right-click, block it - **Import/Export** — back up and share your blocklist as JSON - **Smart container removal** — removes the whole card, not just the name, and cleans up empty wrappers - **Light and dark theme** — follows your system preference ## A note on defaults The preset blocklists are aggressive. If you find yourself missing someone you actually want to hear from, open the popup, find them in the Blocklist tab, and uncheck them. You can also disable entire categories at once.
