No more Lightshot ADS

Download extension

Lightshot tool ads removerINITIAL DESCRIPTION


A small extension that unloads those pesky random class name ads on the Lightshot image viewer. It works by automatically selecting the divs by their XPATH and injecting a new class, one which we can control with simple CSS. The actual hiding is done by sending the respective divs to -99999px.

---------------------

Version 2:

Seems like they updated the site and the names of the divs and classes are not random anymore. Because of this the extension itself is a bit redundant as I think uBlock Origin will probably be working now.

Also sorry for forgetting about this for 3 years. Came back to me as an offer to buy the extension. As I hate solo devs selling their code to companies that monetise it, I didn't, to try to set an example (you hear me quickpik dev??). Plus the code itself is so simple it wouldn't have been wort much either way.

So uh, changelog

* updated to adapt to the new code running on lightshot
* also applies to their homepage
* added fancy new icon
* version number changed from 1.1 to 2.0

No tracking no anything, just rewriting some CSS.
