2024-04-02 n/a The vast majority of accounts show "unknown" and I have to click and wait for over a minute to get a report, which sometimes never happens. Also, a very obvious bot was marked as "normal", so it's not even reliable when all the stars are aligned. Uninstalled after a few minutes.
2023-10-26 sha-265 Why this important extension is closed source? Not making sense at all
2023-09-29 Firefox user 15838614 Works great in Win 11 with Firefox 118.0.1 (64-bit). Its rating scale is from 0 to 100, so it's not like it provides a binary judgment. Use your own judgment with this as a tool. Slightly aggravating that it gives me a score of 18%, but could be because I use adult language on Twitter. The reviews here stating political bias are unfounded, zero evidence claims from users who are likely bad-faith reviewers.

2023-06-22 LinuxCat I would like this extension if it worked. However, apart from the "who to follow" popup on the right of an account's page, there is badge like there is on the screenshots. I'll change my review once this is fixed, this is kinda sad :'(

2022-12-16 Firefox user 17697660 This project is what makes the twitter experience saner. When you came across a problematic account it helps to understand so and if you need to engage with such account, you know what to expect from such account. There is no GDPR violation using it as all the info it gets is already freely available via twitter and its users public conversations! The reviews calling this out, are the ones that want to create chaos and division and simultaneously aren't respecting mozilla's own review guidelines. Going to bot sentinel webpage one gets lists of many classified account and you can browse the accounts and see for yourself the way they engage with others. And non partisan means that you can be a die hard communist, center on the political spectrum or extreme right, no matter what, if you engage in ways that are problematic, this will classify you as such by analyzing your PUBLIC tweets! Key word here being PUBLIC. #SayNoToHate

2022-11-11 Firefox user 14858169 I *super* enjoy how this tags people in my timeline and lets me just skip over the accounts that exist to raise trouble, and focus on the accounts that display sanity.
