2024-09-30 stepanx27 Works as desired. Press the right mouse button on the website and add the hostname to blacklist, then reload and you should see a red "S" symbol.

2023-10-30 Firefox user 18123518 Was working awesome in Ghostery Browser but FB imposed 2 stage security & now won't accept PIN to log in if Stop Auto Reload or FBCleaner are enabled. Need a workaround ...
2023-10-21 Firefox user 14371892 Ever have a tab on Twitter/X pinned and come back to it later, only to have the whole page hard-refresh before you can read it again? This fixes that annoyance no problem. BTW I logged into my Firefox account for the first time in 5 years to leave this review, that is how happy I was that this annoyance was solved. THANK YOU for this plugin! 💯
