If I could give this 6 stars I would! I've been using this for about a year on both Firefox and MS Edge and it has worked flawlessly. I am autistic and am triggered by all the nasty words and phrases on most news sites, so I have customised this software and now just see stars instead - I can guess what they mean but the web experience is so much nicer. I also realised I can change any phrase to another, so now instead of Boris Johnson I see 'Notorious Lier' rofl! I can basically customise the browsing experience so it is more pleasant and fun. Kudos to the developer, keep up the good work. To anyone else, try this out its really good!

This add-on is a game changer if you are sick of all the profanity and vulgarity in almost everything you watch online today. Content that can often be otherwise fairly tame always seems to have that f-bomb or other such vulgarity that just ruins it at least for me personally. Having this add-on means I don't have to worry about having my computer speakers swearing at me all day when I just want to watch something otherwise light on YouTube or Netflix at the end of the day. Also supports almost all of the main streaming sites. Will get out all the religious profanity like all the "OMG" and "J" in our modern media. Just remember you have to have closed captioning turned on for your video for it to work.
