HSUX (remove HS.fi full-page ads)
HSUX is a free Chrome extension developed by Ville Korhonen. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory.
This extension is designed to remove annoying full-page ads from the HS.fi website, but only if you are logged in. It targets the full-page ads that require user intervention, forcing users to click "close ad" before being able to view the page content, even if they are already paying for the service.
HSUX works by injecting JavaScript into the page and hiding the ad if it is present. It achieves this by removing the "frontpage-ad-visible" class from the body tag if the "user-logged-in" class is also present.
The extension has undergone several updates, including versionwhich added the ability to remove ads asking users to order the newspaper, and now loads even when using HTTPS. Versionintroduced console logging when removing elements, while versionadded Google Analytics tracking to count how many times ads have been hidden and collect anonymous data. Versionfixed the GA protocol handling.
Overall, HSUX is a useful Chrome extension for HS.fi users who want to remove full-page ads and have a smoother browsing experience.
