Feature Request

I often sort scripts on Greasy Fork by "Total Installs" to find the most popular and reliable ones. The problem is that many of the top scripts are very old (created in 2018, for example) and are no longer maintained.

Your script is incredibly helpful because it highlights these outdated scripts, making them easy to spot. However, to get to the popular and maintained scripts, I still have to manually scroll past all the highlighted old ones.

I would like to request an option to completely hide these un-updated scripts instead of just highlighting them. This would create a much cleaner and more efficient browsing experience, allowing users to see a list of popular scripts that are also actively maintained.

Use Cases

The main use case would be to filter the script list to show only popular and relevant scripts.

Proposed Workflow:

  1. A user goes into the script's settings (e.g., in Tampermonkey's dashboard).
  2. They find a new option, for example: Action on un-updated scripts: with two choices:
    • Highlight (the current default behavior)
    • Hide (the new option)
  3. The user selects Hide.
  4. When the user browses a script list on Greasy Fork (sorted by total installs, for instance), any script identified as "un-updated" is now completely hidden from the page (e.g., using display: none;).

This would result in a clean list that the user can trust, knowing that every script shown is not only popular but also recent.

Additional Information

First of all, thank you for this excellent script! It already improves the Greasy Fork experience a lot.

The current highlighting feature is great, but adding a "hide" option would make it the perfect tool for discovering high-quality, up-to-date scripts.

Thank you for considering this suggestion!
