BaitHate: An Extension to Combat Clickbait on Chrome
BaitHate is a free Chrome extension developed by CarrotStudios that aims to tackle the issue of clickbait on the web. With the rise of clickbait headlines that lure users into clicking on irrelevant or misleading content, BaitHate provides a solution to help users identify clickbait at a glance and maintain a cleaner browsing experience.
Once installed, BaitHate adds a small circle next to search results on popular websites like YouTube and Google. This circle serves as an indicator of the likelihood that the link is clickbait, with a higher percentage indicating a higher probability. By simply glancing at the circle, users can quickly determine whether a link is worth their time or if it's better to move on.
Additionally, BaitHate allows users to provide feedback to help improve the accuracy of clickbait predictions. By mousing over the circle, users can easily submit feedback, enabling the extension to learn and adapt over time.
Say goodbye to falling for clickbait and regain control of your browsing experience with BaitHate.
