ClarityFilter by SolidDevelop

Description

ClarityFilter helps you stay focused online by hiding or softly blurring articles that mention people or topics you don’t want to see.

Features

Add keywords as chips in the popup (e.g., names, topics, teams).

Modes: Hide (remove the card) or Blur (keep layout stable).

Works on most news sites, feeds, and infinite scroll pages.

Unicode-aware matching (Đ/č/ć/š/ž etc.) and catches short inflected forms (e.g., Vučiću).

Lightweight: no ads, no analytics, no external requests.

Your list can sync via Firefox Sync (to your account only).

How to use

Click the toolbar button.

Type a name/keyword and press Add (repeat as needed).

Choose Hide or Blur.

Reload/scroll the page—the add-on filters matching cards.

Privacy

No data collected or transmitted.

Your blocklist and mode are stored with storage in your browser profile and may sync only to your own Firefox account if Sync is enabled. The developer cannot access this data.

Permissions (why they’re needed)

Access your data for all websites: to read visible text on pages locally and decide which article cards to hide/blur. No data leaves the device.

Storage: to save your keywords and selected mode.

Tabs: to rescan the active tab and show a small “Filtered” counter in the popup.

Tips / Troubleshooting

If nothing happens, refresh the page once after adding keywords.

Use the correct spelling/diacritics (the matcher is Unicode-aware).

To use in Private windows, enable “Run in Private Windows” on the add-on’s details page.

If a site is missed or a whole section gets blurred, please report the URL so we can refine the card detection.

For reviewers (test steps)

Open a news site.

Add a common name (e.g., “Elon Musk”) in the popup and select Blur.

Headlines/cards mentioning that name should blur; the popup shows a non-zero “Filtered” count.
