Search Engine Website Excluder

Didn't do anything. I want to exclude Amazon from my search results, so I added amazon.com to the list. Didn't make a difference. Searched from the address bar, and from straight up google.com and didn't add anything to my search parameters, and still saw results from Amazon.

Apologies but I can't replicate this issue. Is this appending the "-site:" operator to the search? Are you entering search into the "Enter search keywords" box? Does it open a new tab? That is literally all this addon does is append this operator to your search, there is no point of failure to be had. it quite literally takes the populated array, opens a new tab with the direction to append the array to the google "search?q=" query. There are like 4 moving parts, it will NOT hijack your search by default to avoid any unnecessary intrusion.

Definitely not working. Added twitter.com to the Blocked Domains in the tool. When I search "twitter" the first result is twitter.com. When I search "twitter -site:twitter.com" there are no twitter results.

Which search engine are you using? is it appending the "-site:" argument to the search? brave is currently ignoring the operator, otherwise I cannot replicate your results. Moreover, you need to perform the search from the built-n search bar. To keep permissions and intrusion minimal it does not hijack your browser searches by default.

Sadly it doesn't work the same way it does to the other two people. Either it is outdated or anything but after typing a website in and clicking search, I found the website page in my history. I did this many times to confirm that it ain't working so here is an honest review.

Apologies, it appears Brave search is not acknowledging the "-site:" operator. Other engines seem to be fine, I will investigate a fix.

It feels like I'm finally breathing a fresh air. Thanks, it made my day good, so it probably would continue doing so for every next days.

Does basically what it says
