Support
Getting started
- Open the Piraeus app once, then turn on Piraeus in Safari Settings → Extensions.
- Choose Always Allow for YouTube and X when Safari asks. Until you do, Piraeus can't see the comments on those sites.
- Click the Piraeus chevron in the Safari toolbar and choose a mode.
The modes
- Ascend hides comments that attack people: insults, threats, slurs, and contemptuous sneers. Disagreement and criticism stay.
- Protect My Peace is stricter. It also hides sneering, mocking, and media replies on X, while keeping clearly kind or thoughtful comments.
- Descend shows everything.
Common questions
Nothing is being hidden. Check that Piraeus is turned on in Safari Settings → Extensions, that youtube.com and x.com are set to Allow under Edit Websites, and that the toolbar mode isn't Descend. Reload the page after changing settings.
A fair comment was hidden, or a cruel one was shown. Piraeus decides on your Mac with an on-device model and will sometimes get it wrong. Switch to Descend to see everything on a page. Examples sent by email help improve future versions.
Does Piraeus work on other sites? Not yet. It works on YouTube and X in Safari on the Mac.
Does Piraeus send my data anywhere? No. See the privacy policy.
Safari asks to let Piraeus access another website. Choose Deny. Piraeus only works on YouTube and X and never needs other sites.
