VK ads blocker
VK ads blocker is a free Chrome extension developed by Alex Bykov. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory.
The main purpose of this extension is to hide official advertising in the Vkontakte newsfeed, as well as some unofficial advert posts. By using VK ads blocker, users can effectively remove unwanted ads from their feed, creating a more streamlined and personalized browsing experience.
Currently, the extension identifies official advertising posts based on their corresponding labels, as well as most unofficial posts by analyzing keywords in the post text and attached content. It specifically targets posts that contain variations of the word "subscribe" in their text.
In the future, the developer plans to further enhance the extension by implementing more intelligent detection of advertising posts. Additionally, users will have the ability to customize which specific posts they want to hide from their feed.
Enabling or disabling the extension is as simple as clicking on its icon at the top of the browser and toggling its activity. This gives users the flexibility to enable ad-blocking when desired and disable it when not needed.
It's important to note that VK ads blocker does not hide the sidebar ads within Vkontakte. Its primary focus is on removing ads within posts, providing users with a cleaner and more enjoyable browsing experience.
