Feeling cleansed. No more of these 'poggers community's 'he-said-she-said' bs/gambler-bros/bathtub streamers when you wanna watch some clips. However it does slow the browser alot when loading up the site.

I guess I'm too dumb. It just doesn't work. Firefox 134.0 (x) doesn't show on Twitch, and creators on the block list are still visible and being suggested.
