A Chrome Extension to hide stars, followers, watchers, sponsors, and other stats on GitHub

Why?

I don't want my heart to be disturbed by the "±", especially during coding and research.

Install

Choose one of the following options.

• Chrome Web Store
• Download zip archive from release page and load it from chrome://extensions/.
• Run build task and load "./dist" folder as an unpacked extension

Usage

By default, stars are hidden as much as possible.
Some features can be hidden by enabling them on the Options page.

Suppressible GitHub stats

• User
• Repository index
• Repository detail
• Pinned Repositories
• "Explore repositories" and/or the stars
• Sponsors
• Achievements # 0.0.0.13+
• Highlights # 0.0.0.13+

Suppressible third party stats

• GitHub Readme Stats

Inspired

While digging into this feature, I noticed that rentzsch/unpopular exists.
The way looks simple and reasonable to me, it just apply CSS without any JavaScript.
However, I started this project from below reasons.

• Applying CSS doesn't work with the current GitHub WebUI
• There is no activity in these 8 years
• It uses manifest version2. Google will disable it with version3.
• I want to focus on GitHub, would not consider around Twitter
