qm-opensource / hide-unwanted-streams-on-twitch

Userscript that allows to hide content that you don't want to see on twitch.tv

About

This solution is for blocking unwanted content on twitch.tv, such as streams, games, videos etc. Currently, the following platforms are supported:

• Userscript, to be used with the userscript manager Tampermonkey [ Chrome | Firefox ]. Script can be installed from here.

How to use

• See User Guide document.
• If "Config mode" is set to "Advanced" in Tampermonkey settings, it will enable a storage tab when editing the script which allows the block list database to be backed up or edited directly.

Known issues

• "infinite scroll" doesn't work on new layout
• Hiding too many thumbs can cause channels to fail to load (workaround: resize window to reduce column count and refresh)
