For those who don't know, it's a browser extension that marks a link to a group or person determined by how they act towards trans people.

I personally like this concept, but after reading the reviews on its Firefox add-ons page, it let me a bit worried. I found a Reddit post with one person commenting that someone marked their friends' blog as unwelcoming due to personal beef. On that same post, people were writing about how they used it just as a "suggestion".

So, returning to the question in the title, do you personally find this extension reliable/usable? Does it could have anything that should be worked better?

I think it works great and allows me to avoid engaging with problematic individuals and organizations.

I wish Lemmy and the third party apps had the feature.

Peertube could use it too!

I hope it gets expanded to Ebay, Etsy, Amazon, Steam, Play Store, App Store. That would really hurt those fake pink capitalists.

Too bad I use an iPhone I can’t use the extension as it only works on the gecko engine of Firefox. Android wins in this case.

Does it means that you can't use Firefox on iPhone?

Yeah the WebKit version of Firefox doesn’t support extensions. Apple strikes again with anti-competitive behaviour.
