The Stack Exchange network is used by millions, including you, but how much do you actually use beyond the content you came looking for?
There are some nice features - related questions, hot questions from around the network of sites, job offers, etc - but what if you don't want to see those? And once you contribute to a site, and your rep gets high enough, you start to see extra tools for moderation, but what if you don't want to see those either?
WHAT DOES THIS DO?
This extension lets you hide some aspects of network that you'd rather not have distract you from the main content you came looking for. You can hide the footer, the sidebar (or only parts of the sidebar), moderation tools and deleted answers (for those with high rep) - you choose what you see and what you don't.
Ads are not an option to hide, because the sites are otherwise free and offer a lot of people a lot of value - they need to keep the lights on after all. Besides, there are other extensions if you really want to block ads.
PERMISSIONS
It'll request the ability to modify the sites on the Stack Exchange network, because that's what this extension is doing - modifying the styles to hide unwanted components.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
