Decision notes
Official-document research
Based on the cited documentation. We did not use the product, purchase a plan, or run quality, speed or reliability tests in this review.
Consider it for
- People who still need other functions of a supported social site
- Users willing to configure and review a browser extension
Choose another approach if
- Tamper-resistant or whole-device access enforcement
- Redistribution based solely on an old MIT label
Pricing and conditions
Documented terms
The official listings offer the extension for installation without a displayed purchase price; no paid seat, API quota or subscription offer was established. The published source is separately governed by its license, which permits charging for redistributed copies under its conditions. No currency, tax, regional checkout or paid-support entitlement was verified. The existing free classification describes this distribution, not a paid support or forever-service guarantee.
Pricing source read:
Pricing or terms sourceCode, model and service licensing
The current main-branch LICENSE is AGPL-3.0, with notice, license and corresponding-source duties for redistribution/modification and section 13 for modified network use. The older official website and Firefox 3.0.5 listing label MIT instead. Those are different artifacts; this review did not inspect store packages or establish which code revision each contains. Confirm the exact package before commercial redistribution or integration, rather than applying either label to every release. Chrome's no-data-collection statement is the developer's disclosure, not an independent audit. No rights to social-site content, branding or model weights are conveyed.
Basis and limits of the recorded score
The existing 4.7 editorial score is retained; its original evidence was not recovered. This docs-only update did not measure attention, time saved or reliability and did not re-score it.
Overview
News Feed Eradicator replaces feeds on supported social sites with a quote while leaving other site functions available. Official Chrome and Firefox listings describe feed removal; Firefox also lists customizable quotes and temporary snooze. It acts within the supported browser/site combination and can be paused or removed, so it is not an unbreakable access lock or a system-wide control over native apps.
Check the sites and version you use rather than assuming every social interface is covered. The current repository treats new features as largely complete while still accepting fixes; that is not a service-retirement announcement. Its current main-branch license differs from the old website and Firefox listing, so modification or redistribution requires checking the actual package's license, not only a store badge.
