How reliable is the "Shinigami Eyes" browser extension for you? (self.asktransgender)

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 don't really recommend using it, it has a lot of false positives. Also seems to be biased in a lot of their views. It also seems to miss a lot of stuff which is blatantly transphobic and I marked stuff while using it but it was never approved despite being blatantly not okay. So I really don't recommend it. If you do use it, take every rating with a grain of salt, or the whole salt shaker.
