Filter sensationalist content before it grabs your attention
Clickbait headlines are designed to exploit your curiosity, leading to disappointing content that wastes your time. FeedFirewall detects these manipulation patterns and warns you before you click.
Content creators have learned that sensationalist headlines generate more clicks, regardless of whether the content delivers. This creates a race to the bottom where the most outrageous headlines win.
"You won't believe..." and "What happened next..." headlines are specifically designed to create an irresistible information gap.
Words like "EVERYONE", "NOBODY", and "DESTROYED" signal content that trades in absolutes rarely reflected in reality.
"X is FURIOUS" and "Y SLAMS Z" manufacture outrage from minor disagreements to drive emotional engagement.
FeedFirewall analyzes text patterns to identify clickbait tactics, flagging posts that use manipulation techniques so you can make informed decisions about what deserves your attention.
When you see the rage-bait flag, you're mentally prepared for the content's true nature, reducing its emotional impact.
Over time, you'll develop stronger media literacy as you learn to recognize clickbait tactics even without the extension.
The flag doesn't block content—it gives you information to decide what's worth your limited attention.
