KleinanzeigenPlugin
Looking for apartments on kleinanzeigen.de, I was annoyed by having to search trough the same Ads that I have seen the last sessions already. Not being able to instantly see which I contacted or not interested in. With the "KleinanzeigenPlugin", you are able to hide Ads to see which ones you are not interested in or to mark them as contacted, which adds a faded green background color. In the filterview you then can see the filtered entries, being able to restore them and to filter out whole keywords. With "KleinanzeigenPlugin" the user is able to filter out Ads in all categories on "Kleinanzeigen.de", making it a usecase for every "Kleinanzeigen.de"-User that wants to optimize his search experience.
Features:
- Hide Ads on "Kleinanzeigen.de" you are not interested in
- Keyword filtering hides ads containing keywords (e.g., "Tauschwohnung")
