Kill Sponsored: Lightweight Extension to Remove Sponsored Posts on Facebook Marketplace
Kill Sponsored is a free Chrome extension developed by fulbrecht. It falls under the category of Browsers and specifically belongs to the Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This extension aims to enhance the browsing experience on Facebook Marketplace by eliminating sponsored posts.
With Kill Sponsored, users can easily hide sponsored posts while browsing Facebook Marketplace. The extension replaces the "Sponsored" text with a cool emoji , making it easier to distinguish between sponsored and non-sponsored posts. Additionally, it also hides sponsored posts embedded in specific category posts and marketplace search results.
One of the standout features of Kill Sponsored is the "Kill Count" badge on the extension icon. This handy feature keeps track of the number of removed sponsored posts, allowing users to see the impact of the extension in real-time. Furthermore, the extension offers a nifty popup that displays the removal count, providing users with a quick overview of their browsing session.
It's important to note that any updates to the structure of Facebook Marketplace may potentially affect the functionality of the extension. However, the developer has made version 1.1 changes to address certain issues. These changes include a visual update to the extension popup, improved compatibility when navigating from other facebook.com pages without requiring a page refresh, and a switch from post removal to post hiding to resolve errors during Facebook's post loading process.
Kill Sponsored is a lightweight and efficient solution for those who want to declutter their Facebook Marketplace browsing experience by removing sponsored posts. It offers a simple yet effective way to enhance user engagement and streamline the search for non-sponsored content.
