Hey all!<p>Just tossed up <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;unread.chat" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;unread.chat</a><p>It&#x27;s a chrome extension that blocks read receipts and typing indicators on messenger<p>The goal is to make it less stressful to check messages. I find myself not reading threads at all because of the read bubbles, and think this&#x27;ll help improve my response rate.<p>It was a quick project, only ~40 lines of code. The security-conscious can install it from source! <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;raphaelrk&#x2F;messenger-lowkey" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;raphaelrk&#x2F;messenger-lowkey</a>
