- Rated 1 out of 5by Toby, 11 hours agoPinning people as transphobes for talking about intersexism is insane. Same for transmascs being marked unsafe for just talking about their oppression.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Perrio, 13 hours agoIt used to be very useful. Now I just keep it as a joke.
It allows people that say super transphobic things to be marked as green. I've seen people who use slurs like "theyfab" "zippertits" etcetera be marked as trans-friendly.
On the flipside, it also marks a lot of trans-masculine people as transphobic for just discussing the ways in which they've been hurt by transphobia. The people I've seen are not transphobic, they're literally speaking against transphobia. It is confusing and I don't understand why they're being marked red.
I've also seen a lot of intersex people and intersex activists be marked as red too, even ones that are trans themselves or are very pro-trans. I'm intersex and this concerns me a lot.
I don't understand why it's like this now. It used to be so much more useful, but now it seems like it's been hacked by transphobes or something.
Huge shame. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18997387, 2 days ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by TX, 5 days agoShinigami Eyes Is Failing the Community It Was Meant to Protect
Shinigami Eyes is not being “review bombed.” It is being rightfully called out for perpetuating transphobia, intersexism, and internalized community bias. This extension, once a helpful tool for flagging transphobic or unsafe spaces, is now actively contributing to the very harm it was created to prevent.
Let me be clear: I love and support trans women and transfeminine people. My critique is not rooted in misogyny or transmisogyny, but in a commitment to the safety and dignity of all gender-expansive people—including transmascs, nonbinary people (often dismissively labeled as “theyfabs”), intersex individuals, and our allies.
Too many voices in our community are being silenced by this tool. Transmascs, nonbinary people, and intersex folks are being marked red—“unsafe”—not for any transphobic or bigoted behavior, but simply for speaking out about our lived experiences with oppression and systemic sexism. Meanwhile, accounts that promote violence against transmascs and men, deny nonbinary or intersex identities, or spread hate are still being marked green—“safe.”
This isn’t just individual bias. It’s systemic harm. It’s the erasure of marginalized voices within an already marginalized community. And it defeats the entire purpose of Shinigami Eyes.
To the developers and moderators: you must do better. Learn to recognize transmisogyny (sexism against trans women), transmisandry (sexism against trans men), exorsexism (sexism against nonbinary people), and intersexism (sexism against intersex people). These are real, harmful forces in our community. They deserve to be flagged—not shielded.
Trans women are valid. Trans men are valid. Trans nonbinary people are valid. Trans intersex people are valid. If your plug-in claims to protect gender-expansive people, then it must protect all of us.
Until then, I recommend uninstalling Shinigami Eyes—or, at the very least, disregarding the red and green tags and manually correcting false reports. As it currently functions, it no longer serves the community it once aimed to defend. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18992879, 5 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by TertiaryNemo, 8 days agoI wish I wasn't having to write this review, but the recent trend in this extension's highlights is pretty clear. It's no longer reliable and frequently flags explicitly pro-LGBT sources/sites as red and notably TERF-y sources as green. Terrible loss for anyone who used it in years past.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18987003, 8 days agoUsed to be a great tool, but now it's just used by the people who run it to flag people who disagree with what being trans "should" look like- such as targeting trans men who speak out about their experiences instead of shutting up and suffering in silence.
- Rated 1 out of 5by toohehimforthem, 9 days agoThis app was one I used to use all the time, Particularly on sites like YouTube and such where I didn't want to give advertising money to transphobes. However, this app is now being used as a weapon for lateral aggression by people who want to erase trans men and our experiences, and I can no longer support it in good conscience until something is fixed. Trans men get flagged red for talking about the transphobia we face as men, because people don't like it when marginalized people mention situations where intersectional struggles seem to erase (often conditional in these specific cases and that's why it is able to be taken away) privilege, and that isn't okay.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Usually the Butz, 18 days agoI do not recommend. It marks outright TERFs and radfems as green, and transmascs/men, nonbinary people, and intersex people as red.

- Rated 1 out of 5by CW, 20 days agoused to be useful but turned into hot garbage recently. have seen straight up radfems, gendercrits, transphobes, etc marked green and transmasculine, nonbinary, and intersex people marked red for having the wrong discourse opinions lol.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Fleet2, 20 days agoThis used to be an extension that did what it claimed to do, but now it marks transmen and mascs and intersex people as red (unsafe), while marking people who spew the most VILE hatred towards them as green (safe). Whoever mods the extension should be ashamed.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Isactuallyabear, 20 days agoI like the concept of this add-on. Marking people who are transphobic, and marking people who are "safe" for trans people. I used it for a whole year and felt a little safer on the internet because of it. But unfortunately, it seems like there's a bias at play.
Quite a few trans positive people are marked red seemingly because they don't subscribe to a specific set of ideas (which seems to be a specific kind of radical feminism?), including trans men talking about the unique oppression they face. And some people (mostly trans women in my experience) are marked as green even though they're mean to trans people who aren't like them or don't think like them.
It makes me sad to see this add-on used for bullying and infighting when it should be about who's marked as an actual threat to the trans community and who's safe to be around trans people in general. - Rated 1 out of 5by helenaalmost, 21 days ago
