HN Blocklist: Block Users on Hacker News

HN Blocklist is a free Chrome extension developed by Morgante Pell. It falls under the category of Browsers with the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. This extension allows users to block other users on Hacker News, a popular online community.

Hacker News is known for its vibrant and engaging discussions, but sometimes certain users can consistently bother or annoy you. With HN Blocklist, you can avoid lengthy arguments and unwanted interactions by blocking these users.

Once installed, the extension adds a "block" button within comment threads on Hacker News. By clicking this button, you can easily block a user, and all of their comments will be hidden from your view across the entire site. You can also choose to unblock users at any time.

It's important to note that the blocklist is personal to each user and is not shared with others. Additionally, blocking only applies to comments and not submissions on Hacker News.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
