i want to leave this review regarding trans mascs specifically being marked red, which while it is a problem, the majority of the time ive seen them marked red is because they are openly transmisogynists. the point of the extension was to highlight transphobes. you can't complain about being marked red when you yourself are being transphobic. come on now

HOWEVER. it is also true there are people marked green despite also being transphobic. there is no reason why cis transphobes and trans right winger should be marked green when they are going against what the add-on should stand for.

likewise there should be no reason for people who have literally never posted anything regarding trans matter, as well as trans positive people, should be marked red.

the fact i have to actually verify who i come across if theyre a random person on tumblr defeat the point of the extension. very disappointed overall

false flagging blatantly transphobic sources as trans friendly and vice versa, been using for years but the past year has been steadily worse, i cannot in my right mind recommend this extension anymore.

I've been using this extension for several years, and has been mildly satisfyed, but recently this extension has become steadily worse to the point it is now counter-intuitive.

There's accounts marked as trans-friendly that are violently transphobic, including transmysogynistic, contrary to what some of the reviews seem to say. There's accounts marked as trans-hostile which are openly trans-friendly, including accounts that produce and relay valuable information concerning trans and queer people (including, once again, trans women).

On top of that, there's a total lack of transparency from the dev team as to how the moderation works. Considering the large number of false flags this extension is generating, this lack of transparency seriously harms it's credibility.

Due to all that, I'm uninstalling this extension, and won't be reinstalling unless the dev team seriously improve their moderation.

useless, seems to unfairly target certain lgbt demographics red, if you want fair judgments do not use this

Unfortunately, this extension has become useless. There are anti-trans people marked green. Trans and intersex folks are marked red.

Worse, once you correct the setting, that change doesn't carry over to any of your other browsers using this extension.

I've almost blocked trans and intersex folx because I was on a different browser and they showed up RED!

Until these issues are corrected, I can't recommend this browser extension to anyone.

Used to be good but recently seems to be poorly moderated, I have seen people who are blatantly trans friendly from one look at their profile marked as red for no reason? Who is approving this? If I can tell a person is trans friendly then a moderator whose job it is to do this definitely can. And if I am doing your job for you and better than you, then I may as well not be using your services.

Hopefully these instances are just a mistake or a dip in quality of moderation which is fixable, but from looking at other reviews it seems to be related to some discourse? Sorry are we in primary school? I do not partake in or follow online queer discourse could you imagine. But to self-sabotage and ruin a good reputation of something marginalised groups rely on as a lifeline in an often volatile and uncertain online sphere, over something as arbitrary as online discourse of all things is beyond petty and childish, it is dangerous and spreading misinformation.

Keep your discourse to reddit ot twitter or whatever people who argue on the internet use, and away from tools that actual adults use to keep themselves safe online. If you cannot moderate your own add-on properly and maturely, then don't bother keeping it up at all because something that is based on trust, fairness and common sense is rendered useless if you cannot be any of those things. Or better yet find someone who can be those things instead. I'm not saying this should be gone, I'm saying it needs someone who will moderate it properly or it may as well be gone. or a better alternative developed.

Not gonna bother using this anymore unless this addressed/fixed, as a queer person I know how to navigate the internet with my own senses and will happily do it again. But persecuted groups are relying on you and you are letting them down and contributing to already rampant harmful misinformation about them, which is the unforgivable part for me. And for what. Fix or I will drop and I hope others do too. Queer people deserve way better than this and way better than you who sells them out over internet drama apparently, along with your own integrity. Sad for queer people and embarrassing for you. Grow up and sort it out.

I've seen a lot of transphobic people be marked as green, and a lot of trans friendly people as red. My breaking point was a TERF being marked as green. She had 'anti-xy' in her bio. Everytime you see someone marked with this add-on, you have to check just to make sure, and at that point, why bother...

I have seen accounts that wish death, rape and forceful impregnation upon transmascs for the sole crime of discussing our oppression meanwhile intersex people are marked red for pointing out the rampant intersexism in the community.

honestly spam at this point. doesn't do as advertised. highlights trans and intersex people as transphobic.

genuinely stopped functioning, multiple extremely wholesome creators scarlet lettered. :( why? I've used this for 4 years, time to move on ig.

This is the third time this month that I've encountered a pro-trans intersex user on Tumblr marked in red for the mere "crime" of being intersex. Furthermore, I have seen upwards of ten trans masculine people marked in red for, again, just being trans masculine. This is not the extension it claims to be. It is not pro-trans. It seeks to divide the queer community, which makes us all weaker. Removed & purged from all of my devices.

Absolutely needs a better alternative made

Utter garbage. Use your own judgment instead of subscribing to an anonymous Tumblr user's lists of who you're allowed to talk to.

The TERFS running this app now mark all truly trans-friendly content as red because they openly hate trans men and intersex people. NO TERFS IN OUR COMMUNITIES

Very dissapointed in the direction this app has gone recently. What used to be an extremely useful tool for queer and trans folks has been completely sullied with bigoted mislabeling; there is no longer any way to guarantee that someone marked red is truly unsafe or just a queer person that is unpalatable to the people that run this app. Intersexism has no place in the queer community, and will not be tolerated. Truly disheartening to watch this once-great extension turn into a tool for harassment.

This tool has been overwhelmingly used to aid in harassment of trans and queer people, rather than avoid it. This has become the antithesis of what it should have been and what its stated intent is.

good idea, terrible execution

DO NOT USE ANYMORE!!! i used to love this extension but it has been absolutely Poisoned with anti-intersex and anti-transmasculine views, its better to abandon this and wait for an alternative than be fed absolute lies and slander. shame on the creator for ruining what was once a really helpful thing :/

Now has begun marking some trans people and particularly nonbinary and/or intersex people as red for talking about their experiences, which the developer has attempted to defend numerous times.

I've used this for years and unfortunately, as of late, a lot more transgender people themselves with no transphobia I can see on their page are being flagged red and are unable to be switched back. While this used to be very useful, it's turned into another in-community discourse tool as opposed to something that actively helps people be safe at a glance.

Falsely claims to be pro-transgender when the developer themselves has spouted anti-trans rhetoric. Also flags pro-trans folk describing their experiences as "transphobic" and actual transphobes as "pro-trans." The entire premise of the extension was to FLAG transphobia, now that has entirely changed. Do better.

I've been seeing a lot of trans-friendly people falsely marked as anti-trans, just as everyone else has. It's really sad, but you'll just have to double check your sources before immediately jumping to conclusions when you see the red tag on someone.
