Rated 1 out of 5
by nepnym, 3 months agoi remember when using slurs was considered to be transphobic. the current problems are By Design, and have been for a while.
this is a disgustingly sexist terf extension downright lying about being community-friendly. i wouldnt be surprised if it came out in a few years it was a psyop to sow division within the community. this is the material effect it has -- i cant wrap my head around the intent.
the double standard and pattern of the terms on the rules page is, bad, to say the least.
1 star reviews now outnumber 5 star ones.
ill avoid making comments towards the creator, because anything i may say would get this review flagged -- i find the extension itself deserving of a red flag using its original, more fair ethos. the current rules page makes my blood boil.
as note (important): trying to find any further info on the current maintainer, etc, anything/anyone to contact further leads to a lot of bad/weird/harmful misinfo! this is separate and only towards the practice of the extension. there is no minority where it is suddenly appropriate to use hate speech.
i was the first person to open an issue on the gh about this -- so i guess ill stack on to the 1 star reviews, if this helps anyone. i really hope this problem can be fixed because of the large size of the userbase (this extension is even in papers!), so it's sad to see this change.
and -- as an important note -- based off some of the dev responses to reviews -- afab transfem is for intersex people. agab terminology is for intersex people, and appropriating it to exclude intersex experiences is, needless to say, Bad. and its also not trans friendly, because it explicitly, and i cannot stress this enough, excludes a specific Kind of trans person (in a way that is bioessentialist! there's nothing noted about amab transmascs is there? and if there was -- i'd be complaining about that too!).
to specifically flag and exclude afab transfems from the community would be to say that the only trans people who matter are perisex. to only highlight specific hate terms against non-binary and perisex transmasculine people as being ok to use would be to imply that the only community experiences that matter are those of transfems -- and that the only people trans enough to deserve protecting -- are transfem.
anything less than "all trans people" (by demographic) is transphobic. i dont know why we cant spotlight the struggles and oppression against one group without specifically putting down and excluding another group. it speaks poorly of transmisogyny as a concept to use it as a bludgeoning tool to silence more vulnerable members of the community, even those who are transfem. im tired.

- Rated 1 out of 5by mcdonald, 5 days agoI have noticed a lot more people that are excliptly pro-trans getting marked red and being left red. a large amount of people who have never even said a single thing that could reasonably be construed as transphobic are getting marked as anti-trans despite being anything but. i am going to be ditching this extension since its become clear that the moderators of it are letting their own personal bigotry infect it.
you being trans doesnt erase the harm you are doing to your own community devs. - Rated 1 out of 5by It_has_thevoice, 5 days agothe current maintainer supports use of the term "theyfab" and other varietys of discrimination against trans men + mascs the straw that broke the camels back was a blog that reblogged and i quote"I hope small bean transmasc jakey falls on a spike and dissolves into putrid slime. All of you are softboy uwu hitlerites 3 months away from becoming actual fucking detrans terfs. Kill yourself." this blog was marked friendly to trans people bcuz obviously transandrophobia isnt real.
- Rated 1 out of 5by User, 6 days agoHave nothing against this extension, but extension about corruption and fundamental justice must be by the order of magnitude above in the list than this one (which is not current state), so just fixing sorting by dropping this one lower.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18904399, 9 days agoUsed to be fantastic, but now they're explicitly not filtering out malicious reports to mark transphobes as safe, normal trans people as transphobes, and for some reason they're REAL weird about nonbinary people, intersex people, and really enjoy the threats against transmascs.
So it goes. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18181944, 9 days ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18900983, 11 days agoI'd give this add-on zero stars if I could. Ever since it's change in ownership more and more anti-intersex and anti-transmasc blogs have been getting marked as trans-friendly and intersex and transmasc-friendly blogs have been wrongfully marked anti-trans.
You have to double check blogs now just to see whether someone was wrongly marked and the extension has become basically useless. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18895988, 14 days ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Eveline Rose, 18 days agoThis has made the internet so much safer for me. I understand people's concerns about false positives or negatives, although admittedly I haven't had this issue myself. Thank you for making the internet a safer place for trans people. <3
- Rated 2 out of 5by Beetle the SilkWing, 20 days agoAccurate *except* for intersex advocates, who get marked red. Vile if intentional.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Stitches, 22 days agoUsed to work, Now people who talk about trans men or intersex people are marked red and people who say vile things about them as well as literal anti-trans people are marked green. You have to do just as much research yourself now into every blog as without this.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Wickie, 23 days agoworked perfectly fine months ago, now has transmisogynists marked green and trans-positive individuals marked red. no point.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18877928, 23 days agoUsed to do exactly what it said it did. Recently took a major turn and has started marking pro-trans sources as anti & vice versa. I don't know what happened here, but it is no longer a reliable extension.

- Rated 1 out of 5by stingray blast, a month agoi want to leave this review regarding trans mascs specifically being marked red, which while it is a problem, the majority of the time ive seen them marked red is because they are openly transmisogynists. the point of the extension was to highlight transphobes. you can't complain about being marked red when you yourself are being transphobic. come on now
HOWEVER. it is also true there are people marked green despite also being transphobic. there is no reason why cis transphobes and trans right winger should be marked green when they are going against what the add-on should stand for.
likewise there should be no reason for people who have literally never posted anything regarding trans matter, as well as trans positive people, should be marked red.
the fact i have to actually verify who i come across if theyre a random person on tumblr defeat the point of the extension. very disappointed overall - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18860136, a month agoBorderline useless now. So many people falsely marked red. I hate to uninstall it, but... this review is the last thing I'm going to do before I remove it.
- Rated 1 out of 5by CharlotteFall, a month agofalse flagging blatantly transphobic sources as trans friendly and vice versa, been using for years but the past year has been steadily worse, i cannot in my right mind recommend this extension anymore.
