About this extension
Deadname Remover is a browser extension that replaces deadnames with chosen names (primarily for transgender and non-binary people). By installing it, you can avoid the discomfort of seeing your or a friend/family member's deadname while browsing the web.

• Replaces deadnames: Add infinite deadname and chosen name pairs to process and replace on most websites
• Privacy-first: All data processing locally on device. No data collection or browsing history stored. Settings remain local by default, with optional browser sync. See Privacy Policy for more details
• Performant: Extremely lightweight, no noticeable difference in page load times. Can run on low-end devices including Chromebooks
• Pride themes: Add trans pride and non-binary pride gradient highlights on replaced names
• Syncing settings across devices: Keep your settings in sync across all your devices (disabled by default for privacy reasons)
• Content blocking: Prevent flashing of deadnames by blocking page content before the extension has finished processing (optional)
• Stealth mode: Hide the extension icon to protect privacy and avoid being outed. Recommended to disable text highlighting as well.
• Site filtering: Control where the extension operates on a per-site basis (including using wildcards). Can allow or block all sites by default, or specify specific sites to allow or block.
