Fixed

Shortened the manifest description to fit the Chrome Web Store limit of 132 characters (it was 171). Both the English and Italian strings were trimmed; no change to features.

PeRank v0.11.3

Security and store-readiness release.

  • Removed all innerHTML assignments: the deep-search UI is now built with DOM
    methods, so external result data can never be interpreted as markup.
  • Result links are restricted to http(s) URLs (javascript: and similar blocked).
  • Added the data_collection_permissions manifest key required by Firefox: PeRank
    declares it collects and transmits no data.

No user-facing behaviour changes. Full details in CHANGELOG.md.

PeRank v0.11.1 — first public release

Choose a tag to compare

@buio2005 buio2005 released this 18 Jul 15:23

First public release of PeRank.

PeRank re-ranks the results of the major search engines by relevance, hides ads
and sponsored results, and helps you dig past the first page. It works only on
the results already present in the page: no automatic requests, no scraping.

Website: https://perank.tivustream.com

Features

  • Ad and sponsored-result removal on all 8 supported engines
  • Three ordering modes: Original, Reverse, Relevance (with an explained score badge)
  • Supported engines: Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Yandex, Brave, Ecosia, Yahoo
  • Opt-in deep search, where the engine allows it cleanly (see README for the
    engine-by-engine table — we deliberately show no button where it would not work)
  • Blacklist / whitelist of domains
  • Per-domain votes and a starred archive of saved results
  • Bilingual interface (English / Italian) with a manual language selector
  • Everything stays local: no server, no tracking, no data sent anywhere

Known limit

On Yandex, ad removal could not be verified: no test query returned an ad to
validate the selectors against. Everything else works there. See the README.

Install

Not yet on the stores. For now, load it manually — see the README for the
Chromium and Firefox instructions.
