Been telling myself for months I should try avoiding youtube comments, as they're often depressing and infuriating, yet I always just wander into them.

This does exactly what it says it does, and is handy if you're trying to decrease your intake of the landfill of idiocy modern interwebs has become. Re-enabling them is just a click in the top bar away, but it is much nicer not having them there by default...

Some sites like Quora or Youtube have nested comments, so when you hide them all of them disappear. However, when you expand them again, it doesn't seem to expand the part if the person has written a lot of information. On Quora, it's labeled as (more) and on Youtube it's called "read more". You have to manually click on the "read more" or "more" in order to expand the whole comment.

Amazing addon, but I notice it's not working in Google Drive. even when I disable the addon there, I can't see the comments highlighted in the text.

(UPDATE: it wasn't working using the shortcut, but then I put it in the bar and pressed to enable comments in drive)

I didn't expect this to work on VK. It's blessed, thanks.

Only works on certain websites.

Does perfectly its task, thanks so much. Suggestion: inverse the icons' use, it might be more logical that the icon with the minus is used for the off state of the addon

Didn't work on twitter for me using waterfox.

I love you! BEST!

Basic requirement in any new browser install. My dream feature: A middle setting with image detection that only removes comments from people with troll avatars (political leaders, etc).

Hi! can you add an option to hide Likes on websites? (YouTube, Facebook, VK, Instagram...)

Perfect! Comment sections are the pinnacle of idiocy in my opinion and I'm better without seeing them.

Great job! A mental health improvement for sure.

Truly a gift. Thank you.

Excellent! That's what I need

Works well to block time-wasting and annoying comments. The developer responded very quickly and helpfully to my request to fix this so it worked on a newspaper site that I subscribe to.

I've been using this for a few years now and it's always worked well, but I think the Firefox 1.6 release is messing with it. It seems to be randomly forgetting sites where I've allowed comments. On some sites, comments are hidden and the balloon icon is greyed out, so I have to reload the site a couple of times until the icon turns black so that I can click it and enable comments. It was working fine before the FF update.
