A browser extension to block likers, retweeters, list members and Twitter ads and share your block lists with others. - say NO to hate speech!

currently, the user can close the likers popup from twitter but the blocker popup remains open.
ideas:
The plugin is awesome but does not work for https://tweetdeck.twitter.com/. It would be great to have the same functionality there.
If I'm blocking likers on large tweets, the additional confirmation page can be annoying. It would be neat if the addon could submit directly to the blockapi.
Should: close both on ESC.
When clicking the "block all" button, the console outputs an error and nothing happens
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'classList' of null
at HTMLButtonElement. (script.js:148)
Tested here: https://twitter.com/Martin_Sellner/status/1231853940104409089/likes
IS: always blue.
SHOULD: use the user's theme highlight color.
some users may think that retweeters also include retweeters with comment.
it should be pointed out that this is not the case.

Schade.

on every scroll event the app tries to add the block button.
this is very inefficient and could be fixed with some debounce mechanism.
For large lists of likers, we can only block the ones that are displayed in the list.
To block more, the user could do the block action multiple times.
TODO:
Add a hint to the popup.
When trying to block all likers from a tweet (this one, to be specific: https://twitter.com/ben_brechtken/status/1267464201871806465/likes), the extension does not only submit the list of accounts, but some search queries as well. The resulting url looks like the following:
https://ichbinhier-twittertools.herokuapp.com/blocklists?users=herbie_san,EpimediumRubrum,hzumr,FkLennart,BeneckeMichael,raven_nrw,darkstar155,Mr_Westermann,hofmann_tech,search?q=%23KI&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Wissenschaft&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Gesellschaft&src=hashtag_click,MichaelSCHADT2,ingeniarius08,chrisX107,JuPi02026616,pndaxa,ichschonwiedwr,vitamin694,Dwro285,TJargstorff,search?q=%23MINT&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23HSV&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23FDP&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23liberalkonservativ&src=hashtag_click,sterntendo,KalbRobert1,FHustede,alex533368433,juliesferr,leopold_jk,maxim_k,search?q=%23Liberalismus&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Klimawandel&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Weltwirtschaft&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23%C3%96konomie&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23%C3%96kologie&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Kapitalismus&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Sozialismus&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Brexit&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Frankfurt&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Fahrrad&src=hashtag_click,tgbzhn11,liberaleinnovat,MesoLat,SuperSonic1511,august1vi,Uni_MR,martinpaloncy,HeikoGonzales,search?q=%23Hayek&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Smith&src=hashtag_click,NielsYoghi,dentzke,TheVallorian,Black_Death616,LordXhinto,dieHumanisten,PdH_SH,ja_ne_doch,kreativ2505,r_____jan,search?q=%23noAfD&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Liberal&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23SozialLiberal&src=hashtag_click,FDP,Jungeliberale,EqualReality,Mr_Trebron,MarinaHR90,James_Zabel,search?q=%23Twitch&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Photographer&src=hashtag_click,search?q=%23Instagram&src=hashtag_click,schmuck_luca,dmmdmll,cdu,ju,lbend3,Notausgang25,Zeigefinger1,Cyclonos,Kingdomcometous,search?q=%23wirbleibenzuhause&src=hashtag_click,Reakoh,pudibumaye,PrimeLindner,search?q=%23PrimeLindner&src=hashtag_click,_Ascan_
That results in the following (very short) list of blocked accounts:
And from what I can see, this also prevents the block altogether, although this also might be a bug in https://github.com/pkreissel/ichbinhier_twittertools.
for white theme, the close button is white.
it should always have the site's text color.
dark theme looks good:
Hey,
additional install instructions for those who can't activate the extension. Unpacking it to a folder and using "Load Unpacked" fixes this issue.
Due to technical constraints, we can only collect a maximum of 80 users from the likers list.
This should be explained to the user.
If the user scrolls down and clicks the block button, only the last likers are collected.
To fix this, it should automatically scroll to top before it starts to scroll down.
IS:
SHOULD
The block dialog should use the same font as the twitter UI.
because of twitter's lazy loading mechanism, not all likers are passed to the block api.
but we also can not take all, if there are too many (this would break the server and also the browser).
So the idea is:
scroll down a few pages and then get the list of likers.
in twitter>settings>security>apps>connected apps, i cant see the extension. the usage tab also doesnt tell me what to do, just "authorize the extension" but i dont know where. i dont get any popups either
I try to prove it in a tweet of 6 likes of a person (only to prove it) when i press block all says blocking everyone but when i check the same users are not blocked is like if the extension simulates that block them but is not i prove it again but nothing i dont know if i have to use another navigator like firefox or opera but i hope you can fix that soon because it could be a very useful extension (note english is not my first language sorry if something is wrong)
This looks ugly:
First version looked better but was an emojy and not supported by all platforms.
ToDo:
Replace the text glyph with an SVG icon.
The extension should be published to the Chrome Web Store and on Mozillla Add-Ons to simplify the installation and to easily ship updates.
Und noch ein Vorschlag:
- Rückfrage bei Accounts, denen man selbst folgt oder die einen folgen, vor einem Block. Also eine Art Whitelist (Einstellungen+Listen könnten ja in der Cloud-Speicherfunktion des Browsers hinterlegt werden).

Possible Solutions:
How should the data be sent?
SHOULD:
Include only likers
Beside the blocking of persons, who liked a tweet, it would be very helpful to block entire lists (open & private ones).
Since Twitter doesn't allow to export/import lists for blocking anymore, a reimplementation with an add-on is the way to go IMHO.
Is:
The user has to enable the checkbox for retweeters every time he uses the block feature.
Ideas:
hi. after experimenting, i realized the app only manages to find a few likers and blocked thoes maybe. but it keeps showing there are no likers when i check the likes when there are thousands of likers. it is wrong. ican't see the likers now to block them myself!!
The LikersBlocker logo was sloppily created in about an hour and should be refurbished.
Criteria from the Google Web Store:
- The actual icon size should be 96x96 (for square icons); an additional 16 pixels per side should be transparent padding, adding up to 128x128 total image size. For details, see Icon size.
- The image must be in PNG format.
- The image should work well on both light and dark backgrounds.
When you design the icon, keep the following advice in mind:
- Don't put an edge around the 128x128 image; the UI might add edges.
- If your icon is mostly dark, consider adding a subtle white outer glow so it'll look good against dark backgrounds.
- Avoid large drop shadows; the UI might add shadows. It's OK to use small shadows for contrast.
- If you have a bevel at the bottom of your icon, we recommend 4 pixels of depth.
- Make the icon face the viewer, rather than having built-in perspective. See Perspective for details.

Current Icon:
IS:
Currently only likers are passed to the block service.
SHOULD:
Retweeters should optionally be included in the list.
Currently, it's only available in German. But English wouldn't be better, since the users are Germans.
ToDo:
The screenshots and social media preview image could be refurbished.
Criteria:
See https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/images#promo
And https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/images#screenshots
Changed the button action from window.open to a standard link. Popup blockers will probably not block this.
IS:
Currently, all labels are German.
SHOULD:
Display the labels in the user's language (English and German should least).
If the screen on mobile viewport, the scrolling stops after one iteration.
