Wow this is really great! Noob question, but let's say I wanted to permanently load this JS in my browser? How would I achieve that? Grease monkey? Extension? Thanks :)

There's a Wikipedia page greasemonkey-like things: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Userscript_manager

Might try this one: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/violentmonkey/jinj... I just installed it and it seems to work well.

Why not create your own web extension? It will take just a few lines of code, you can look at this example for reference[0] (also on Github[1]).

I don't know about you, but I really don't want an extension for every small change one might want to apply to one specific site.

That's fair how about Tampermonkey -- I use it occasionally to apply js/css/html fixups to sites, e.g. Add browser titles to sites for better bookmarks, re-organize/add site html, etc. I did use it for removing content but ublock origin is much better imo for most cases.

Violentmonkey is a nice open source alternative to Greasemonkey.

Your wording implies Greasemonkey is not open source. I don’t know if that was your intention or not, but Greasemonkey is open source.

They're probably confusing it with Tampermonkey, which isn't open source.

You can quickly create a Chrome extension to excecute js or css on any website: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/content_scr...

Should be really easy with grease monkey. I simply pasted the snippet into a new script and enabled it for this site. Works perfectly out of the box.

Or ask pg to save it on the server side.
