Red Block is an extension for block, unblock, mute, or unmute multiple users from Twitter or TweetDeck. It can use as an alternative to Twitter Block Chain.
- Not only does Chainblock, but it can also Unchainblock, Chainmute, and Unchainmute.
- It can run multiple Chainblock sessions.
- It won't block your mutual followers.
- You can adjust options to skip, mute, or block your followers in session.
- It can run a session to block the mutual followers of the target user.
- It can run a session to block users who retweeted and/or liked a specific tweet.
- You can save users to the bookmark. (also saving tweet is planned)
- It doesn't access any external service other than Twitter.
Currently, Red Block has the following technical limitations:
Red Block will warn before it exceeds 500 users (per day? Note that this limitation is not documented anywhere). This limitation is to avoid force-logout and account suspension. Clicking the "Reset" button will clear this counter manually but it is not recommended. (especially your account's recovery email/phone is not available.)
This is because Twitter doesn't always provide entire list of users who retweeted/liked a specific tweet. It is a limitation of Twitter API.
Currently, Red Block uses the "webRequest" API for several features.
- Supporting Firefox's container tab feature.
- Supporting Incognito (Private) mode.
- Detect and prevent blocking more than 500 users. (block limiter)
- Run Chainblock to the user even they blocking you (Experimental feature)
But, Chrome will restrict this webRequest API in the future. (see: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/intro/mv3-migration/#modifying-network-requests ) so Red Block may change or remove these features. Note that it doesn't affect Firefox and other web browsers that based on Firefox(such as Ghostery Dawn, Librewolf Browser).
- Install dependencies with
yarn(ornpm install). - Running
yarn build(ornpm run build) will build an extension to "build/".
There are several alternatives that help block multiple users.
