    It is in the official extension repository [1]. I had to put it there because of how difficult/impossible it is to run a local extensions. But it's definitely not designed for general use. I'll be glad to guide you if the tiny amount of help I've included isn't enough.

    The source [2] is available too.

    The actual idea of the extension is "Style stuff using regular expressions". So you specify a regex; what to search, attributes and/or text (text can cause a lot of undesired results so I don't use it much); and css styles to add to the elements containing matches. I only really use it to apply visibility: hidden to any element with an attribute matching one big regex that's basically just a bunch of domains regex |'d together. The example in the options UI is what I'm still using years later, I've just added more domains.

    I originally started with just taking out tags but that idea was quickly shot down. Lots of links aren't tags. Sometimes the domain being linked to is buried in some JS in a onX event attribute, or some data-* attr that the UI framework uses and a bunch of other oddities. So the code searches all attrs. It's not super efficient but I've never noticed it causing a slow down.

    Another problem is, often, the original request doesn't even contain the links, they're loaded after. So it uses a MutationObserver and looks at the new elements for matches.

    Several years ago, I was sick of hitting pay/signup walls for sites I already knew I was never going to join but kept clicking because I either didn't know where the link was going or I just forgot that site was walled off. I made an FF add-on that applies a specified style to any elements with attributes matching a given regular expression. It can do text content matching too but, as it's currently programmed, it tends to apply to an element too far up the tree.

    It was intended for personal use but, if anyone is interested, it's a public github repo and, because Mozilla requires an add-on to be registered to be usable in any practical sense, it is up on the add-on site. There's no proper UI, the only interface is through preferences and it's just a textarea where the JSON config goes (example given below the textarea).
