Blue Blocker

Blocks all Twitter Blue verified users on twitter.com

What is Blue Blocker?
'Blue Blocker' is a Firefox add-on that allows users to block all Twitter Blue verified users. By default, it does not interfere with users you follow. It operates by queuing users to avoid hitting Twitter's API limits. Features include options to avoid blocking certain categories, adjusting blocking speed, syncing between tabs, along with concise settings. An optional feature to mute instead of block, and message notifications regarding blocked users are also available. The add-on also supports major locations on Twitter, including search results, tweet replies, user pages, and timelines. Users can also prefer to block users flaunting NFT avatars.
