blockmaxxing v1.0.3

Full Changelog: v1.0.2...v1.0.3

blockmaxxing v1.0.2

Full Changelog: v1.0.1...v1.0.2

blockmaxxing v1.0.1

Renamed to Blockmaxxing and switched to a proven, maintained ad-block engine.

Install

• Chrome / Edge: download blockmaxxing-chromium.zip, unzip, then load the folder via chrome://extensions → Developer mode → Load unpacked.
• Firefox: download blockmaxxing-firefox.zip and load manifest.json via about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox → Load Temporary Add-on.

What changed

• Real ad removal — now uses the maintained, MIT-licensed TwitchAdSolutions engine (segment-level stream swapping). The previous engine detected but did not reliably remove ads.
• Toolbar badge shows ads blocked on the current tab (uBlock-style).
• Works on install — ad blocking and the local activity log are on by default.
• New icon and full rebrand from the previous name (removes the Twitch trademark from the product name).

TwitchShield v1.0.0

First public release — a privacy-first Twitch ad blocker for Chrome and Firefox.

Install

• Chrome / Edge: download twitchshield-chromium.zip, unzip, then load the folder via chrome://extensions → Developer mode → Load unpacked.
• Firefox: download twitchshield-firefox.zip and load manifest.json via about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox → Load Temporary Add-on. (Signed store builds coming to the Chrome Web Store and Firefox AMO.)

Highlights

• Stream-level (SSAI) ad removal that runs entirely on your device — no backend, no telemetry.
• Per-channel whitelist, blocked-ad counter, optional on-device diagnostics, and a mute-through-ad option.
• Chrome + Firefox, Manifest V3, MIT-licensed.

See the CHANGELOG for full details.

Note: Twitch changes ad delivery frequently, so occasional ads may appear until the extension is updated. Not affiliated with Twitch Interactive, Inc.
