Description
Hides anonymous and pseudonym posters and commenters on Facebook so threads stay signal-rich. Not affiliated with Meta Platforms. We built this because we got tired of it. Facebook gives you no way to filter anonymous commenters from your threads, and nothing else on the web does it either. Most of these accounts exist for one reason: to bait people and start fights in busy groups. We wanted them gone, so we built this. Hide Anonymous Comments for Facebook removes comments from anonymous group members and the auto-generated pseudonyms Facebook uses to mask them. Names like "HandsomeCorgi6333", "SincerePeacock6350", "ThoughtfulBlueberry3893", or "Anonymous user 262". Your threads stay focused on people willing to put their name to what they say. Features - One-click toggle from the toolbar. Turn it on or off without leaving Facebook. - Two modes: hide comments completely, or replace them with a small "Anonymous post hidden · Show" pill you can click to reveal. - Add your own custom phrases. Any name format Facebook uses that we missed. Use * as a wildcard, e.g. anonymous_* catches anything starting with "anonymous_". - Counts how many anonymous comments it filters per day and over time, so you can see how noisy your threads actually were. - Detects Facebook's "Anonymous participant", "Anonymous member", and "Anonymous user N" labels; auto-generated PascalCase pseudonyms (HandsomeCorgi6333 style); and short anon-handles (anon9993 style). - Works in light and dark Facebook themes automatically. - Localized matching for English, Spanish, French, and German anonymous-author labels. How it works The extension runs only on facebook.com pages. It scans comments as they load and hides ones whose author label matches an anonymous pattern. Nothing leaves your browser. No tracking, no analytics, no remote servers. Your preferences and the counter are stored locally in your browser. Privacy This extension does not collect, transmit, or share any data. The only information it stores is your settings and a local count of how many items it has hidden. All storage stays on your device.
