The concept is hilarious and really presses the spite dopamine button in my brain.

Damn, did you read what I wrote about 2 month ago?

I wish there was a browser plugin which would remove anything about Elon Musk from any website I'm visiting. Somehow his remarks are getting more and more stupid.

It seems I asked the univerlse for something and it delivered! Thank you so much!

Don't let the flame die, OP!! This is a really good idea for an add-on. I like what the other commenters said to add custom blocking and a per site restriction.

I really like it but if I could make one small suggestion, a small x in the corner to un-blur, sometimes I want to enjoy the dunking they are getting

I want this but for reality. And instead of blurring them, it burns them. Also, it goes way beyond the Forbes top 10, to every piece of shit with a useless giant SUV. Is it possible?

I think that expanding it to allow for custom blocking patterns will make it more appealing in general. Like being able to add your rich_person_of_choice to the list or the ability to block a company (Meta anyone?) might both be useful features.

Not sure if it fits your plans though or how hard it’s going to be to implement.

It's beautiful

I’m definitely going to use this. I do not understand how people care about famous people at all. Can you extend the extension to apply to literally anything like it. I don’t care about celebrities, their babies, what they ate for lunch, etc.

Fantastic idea. Does it allow the user to add their own filters?

I'd really like to make my internet free of Mr Beast, that guy is so frickin annoying.

Thanks lol. I was getting tired of seeing Exceptionally Musky's toupee.

I need this to be a thing

Yes. Excellent!

There used to be an extension that replaced trump images with cats. Can we also replace pictures of the rich (and famous) with images of baby animals? I don't need to keep seeing their dumb faces everywhere.

It's interesting, to say the least, but I feel like it's missing a feature, or the concept is niche...

What kind of user do you expect would download this? I am going to try it tomorrow to see if it changes anything

this got me to laugh out loud when I opened Elonged Muskrat's wikpedia page and found it completely blurred out. Thank you!!!

you should replace the billionaire for something funny

I love this idea. Will definitely look into installing on my desktop. I'm working on a searxng instance that filters out all the toxic sources that think they own the internet also. Its also very much a work in progress, but yeah, these putzes get too much attention on the internet and anything we can do for our own peace of mind to delete them from pur lives is absolutely worth doing. I put a lot of filters on mastodon to the same end and it has made my social media experience so much more enjoyable.

Great extension! Now I don't have to hear about January 6 hearings every damn day.

I appreciate the idea, but ignoring problems doesn't make them go away.

Neat!

It should also block out all of the Us congress then, since those are also fairly rich people.

I like this! Thanks for posting. I don't know anything about compiling an add-on, but it looks like it would be super easy to update the list (add twitter or reddit as things to block any mention of). So I guess my question is, how easy is it to just edit https://github.com/aCosmicWave/blocktherich/blob/main/blocktherich.js to update the add-on?

This is awesome 😄

Love it!!!

You do know that Mozilla is basically part of "the rich"?
