Features

Custom Filtering Options

HN Blacklist provides a user-friendly interface at the bottom of the Hacker News page, enabling convenient management of filtered content:

• By Domain: To exclude articles from particular sources, prefix the domain with source:. For example:

  source:example.com
  

• By Title Text: It’s possible to remove articles containing specific words or phrases from your feed. For instance, to filter out titles with "ChatGPT":

  ChatGPT
  

  Note that this filtering is case-insensitive.

• By User: To eliminate submissions from particular users, use the user: prefix followed by the username. Example:

  user:username
  

These filtering capabilities allow users to curate their content efficiently, enhancing the overall user experience on Hacker News.

Installation

HN Blacklist can be found and installed from Greasy Fork, or users can copy the script directly from the hn-blacklist.js file available in this repository.
