ekill

@anna_0x Yeah, maybe that's not the best of examples! 😃 You'll be happy in the cases where there isn't an 'x' or a button though! I find that a lot of blog engines, (looking at you medium), presents some very big "bars" atop or bottom of their pages, which just gets in the way. Plus, you can let ekill hold a grudge against an element and have it killed off automatically on subsequent visits. 👍

@anna_0x Medium steals a lot of screenspace by default: https://imgur.com/a/7mZmGv3

@rhardih Oh I see, thanks for the detailed example~ I read Medium articles on my phone so never noticed what they do on desktop. Seems like an adblocker that lets you manually block ads does the same thing though, no? This sure looks like a faster way though.

@rhardih oh, and if I block say, a cookie banner on one site, when I visit that site again, I assume I won't be presented with the same cookie banner?

@anna_0x It's an opt-in feature, but yes!

@sean_daly Hey Sean! Thank you for the feedback. Yes, I do plan to improve the 'kill' power as an ongoing effort. It's a hard problem to win out in all cases, since you never quite know what Javascript sorcery is present on all pages. If you have any specific examples, where ekill fails, I'd love to keep track of them, so I can do some experimentation. Feel free to create a new issue on github, or perhaps stick it onto this one: https://github.com/rhardih/ekill...

@sean_daly Callback from the past. This feature got added back in March, with version 1.9. Cheers! https://github.com/rhardih/ekill...
