Financial got tired of olx clutter so I made an extension to kill it
olx pakistan has become unusable with all the featured spam, delivery junk, and banner ads.
instead of complaining about it I just wrote a tiny chrome extension that wipes all of it out. added toggles for featured and delivery ads in the popup so you can turn them off whenever. themed it in the old dark blue UI because the current site looks terrible.
not putting it on the store because google wants 5 bucks for a dev fee. if you want to use it or check out the code it’s open source on github:
https://github.com/AimVainx/OLX-Blocked
installing it: download zip -> extract it -> go to chrome://extensions/ -> turn on developer mode -> click load unpacked -> select the folder.
done. now you block them.

A genuine and useful idea, Good Work!
As someone who's been in your shoes, I would definitely push you to pay the 5 bucks and publish it, pays you dividends in the long term.
HMU if you need help w it I'm willing to sponsor it
