Official Twitter account of Retheme, a Chrome extension by @kevinrwhitley.

I remove ads and visual clutter from popular/user-requested sites!

Retheme doesn't JUST have to kill ads/popups on sites... it can also be used to literally "retheme" websites, transforming them completely. Fonts, colors, layout, unicorns, kittens, you name it.

Would you ever be interested in picking custom themes for websites?

Ads bloom in cyberspace,
Selling dreams, a frantic pace.
Billboards shout, pop-ups flare,
Yet real info is oh so rare.

Amid the noise, a cheer,
A tool that makes clutter clear.
Retheme's here, let's cut the chase,
Browsing is now a cleaner space!

Taking notes for the next Retheme UI. Literally dying here… 😂

Sunday read.

This is hilarious. Engineers are competing who creates the worst UI on Reddit.

I think the winners are:

If you want to easily look up Texas statutes online, you typically look them up on https://t.co/EXDtd9I4jf, which is horribly unattractive and very difficult to read. See image. Bad font, bad spacing, no differentiation between sections...

[Retheme.org @rethemeapp]

Another fun user request, this time for improving readability on Texas statutes (for law review)... no ads to deal with, just a mess of monospace text!

@simeydotme @kevinrwhitley Like, we can’t easily target Pinterest ads for the very reason you describe - nothing to differentiate between real/ad content, even using the new “has” selector… but there are still tons of other sites that aren’t so savvy that we can improve!

[Retheme.org @rethemeapp]

@simeydotme @kevinrwhitley I know, that’s the killer with starting this now in the era of css-in-js injections and (flame wars enabled) Tailwind (good luck targeting anything at all). Luckily for Retheme users, the majority of the consumer web uses very low-tech, dated practices that are easy to target! 😄

I absolutely love @crunchbase, but not all of us can afford a subscription for the once-in-a-blue-moon lookup.

Hitting a few more sites this week. This one on @MUO_official - restructured the page a bit to give prominence to the authors/share links as well.

This one is for the holidays... what happens when you quit drinking alcohol. @WebMD, your site is a poorly-styled ad-fest. You're also breaking up content as slideshows to force even *more* ad-views.

I made some tweaks for @rethemeapp users...

I also fixed the responsive mess...
