When reviewing pull requests (PRs) on GitHub, the timeline is often cluttered with system messages, status updates, and other non-conversational elements. This makes it harder to focus on the actual discussions, feedback, and code reviews. Scrolling through irrelevant content slows down the review process and reduces efficiency.
Conversation-Cleaner is a simple Web extension that helps you streamline PR reviews by hiding unnecessary timeline entries, allowing you to focus on what really matters: the conversations and feedback.
🔹 Filters Out Noise – Automatically removes system messages and unrelated comments from the PR timeline.
🔹 Enhances Readability – Provides a cleaner, distraction-free view of discussions.
🔹 Improves Efficiency – Reduces scrolling and helps reviewers find relevant comments faster.
✨ Stay Focused – Only see the essential discussions and feedback.
⚡ Review Faster – Spend less time filtering through irrelevant updates.
🤝 Collaborate Better – Follow conversations more clearly and improve team communication.
This extension is especially useful for developers and project maintainers who frequently review PRs and need a clutter-free experience🚀
