Show HN: X-Terminate, a Chrome extension to remove politics from your X feed

Hi HN, I made a chrome extension that removes all politics from Twitter. The source code and installation instructions are here: https://github.com/wafer-inc/x-terminate

A description of how it works technically is here: https://chadnauseam.com/coding/random/x-terminate. Indeed, I mostly made the extension as a demo for the underlying tech: Rust libraries for data labelling and decision tree inference.

All libraries involved are open-source, and there are instructions for how can make your own filter (e.g. if you want to remove all Twitter posts involving Rust or AI).

    Perhaps removing Twitter altogether is a better solution?
