Because I wanted to refresh some basic algos from time to time, I've extended a repo from ThePrimeagen so it allows me to practice some selected problems and gather info about my attempts. The data is then saved and if it resides in a public repo, it can be used to create a Github badge (WIP).

Boids simulation using Three.js along with a short explanation of the basic concepts.
Do you know about some way to check whether what I install from Extension Store is exactly the same as on Github?
Thanks for the hint. Yeah, I will do this :)
Definitely! The current implementation is supposed to just do the work. It's not meant to be optimized or anything.
Added a quick domain check to avoid the issue that you've mentioned :)
This is just the straightforward idea of waiting for some element to appear on the website. But once the element is found, this thing stops. It won't stop for YouTube if you are on Facebook though but it's just a first implementation and it could actually be very easy to recognize the site. Thanks for the helpful suggestion!
Haha, that should be definitely possible, but would require a bit more knowledge :)
The advantage that speaks to me, is that I control everything. I'm not sharing my data with the developer of the extension so it's one person less that I have to trust. I can also very easily adjust it to my needs, but I can program, so it's not valid case for everyone.
The current version just grabs the whole feed and removes it from the website. If you can program, it won't be hard for you to extend it so you can remove only the content you want.
Unhook looks nice, since it's only restricted to accessing YouTube. Strange that I didn't stumble upon it while looking for options.
The main problem that I have with extensions is:
"It can:
Read and change all your data on all websites"
Having my own, local extension I don't have to actually think whether I added some sensitive stuff to be exempt from permissions or not.
The whole point is to actually have installed locally so you don't share any data with the developer of the extension. The problem with extensions is that in many cases the access that you give them is way too broad. If you install it by yourself, you control everything. The only thing that I thought about is maybe some kind of configurator that would allow you to pick some already existing rules that the users would share through github.
You are right. I'm using Brave and didn't know about it until now. I will give it a try as well.
Do you mean the local overrides from the console? Or something else? It would be cool to learn about some different approach.

Your own browser extension to get rid of unwanted social media feed! 5 minutes to setup, hours saved.
Really nice! I'm also currently playing around a lot with automatically generated videos and I can see this having a lot of potential! Some questions that come to my mind:
1. Do you plan including AWS Polly in the speech generation? There is also a free tier, the API is nice so it might be also a good choice for people using AWS SDK already in their projects.
2. How do you approach aligning the words with animations? Is it possible to align it for a specific word? I was wondering how one might approach this. Did you already describe it somewhere?

How do you monetize it? Does the profit highly depend on the audience that this newsletter is for?
