i'm going through my ao3 history because while i love ao3 enhancements, it'll add fics to my history that i've "read" but haven't actually. it sucks because it's a fantastic extension, but that bit bugs me.
but so i'm going through and deleting fics that i know i didn't read because it's in fandoms i'm not a part of or i know i haven't read the fic (like there's a lot of html/css fics i've read because i maybe need them for the future). but there's fics in fandoms i read for but the ships are like "did i actually read that?".
it's annoying...

HI EVERYONE!!!!!! I FINALLY FOUND A WORKING CHROME EXTENSION THAT HELPS WITH AO3 BROWSING AND ACCESSIBILITY!!!!
It's called AO3 Enhancements and it can help you:
Block tags
Calculate estimated reading time
Calculate kudos/hits ratio
See chapter word count and upload date
Change width and formatting for easier reading
There's also AO3 Enhancement Suite, which is very similar, but built into the site directly. It also has a floating comment box! This one's great, but I found I liked the former extension better. It's all up to you!!
I also found some other extensions that are helpful! I'll make posts about them later once I actually test them out
happy reading ^^
P.S: i know nothing about coding or extensions or whatever. please do not ask me questions about these extensions, because i'm just as lost as you are. sorry!!

hi, here's some advice to AO3-ers 💅
SO
you wanna filter out specific ships? authors? your own embarrassing fics (does not count anon fics sadly)? or even specific tags? track fic length individually and more?
well I have:
AO3 Enhancements for you!!!
so, this extension is available for just about every browser, i use it for edge but it IS available for chrome and likely firefox too. just go to the extension store based on ur browser and type in AO3 Enhancements.
anyways more directions below IF it interests you to have a helpful AO3 extension:
this is firefox:
Tumblr media
this is edge, though i already have it, so instead of remove it'll likely say add or add extension or download:
Tumblr media
and this is chrome:
Tumblr media
now, for whatever your browser is, you just hit the add button. i will use chrome for this. so, hit 'add to chrome'.
this box below should show up, just hit add extension anyway.
Tumblr media
and then once you've hit add extension, it may take 3-5 seconds (as it did me), and then boom! it's done. now, you'll notice a few differences instantly on a fic. here's an example:
Tumblr media
there's a 'Finish reading' box and a 'Kudos/Hits' box. So if you want the ratio, for whatever reason, there you have it! Now, the Finish reading is complex.
When you go to your extensions, and find AO3 Enhancements, hit the box that says 'Options' when you open the options with the three dots.
this is what you should get:
Tumblr media
now, 'Finish reading' depends on how far along you move the scale for the 'My reading speed is ___ words/min' section. The default is 200. I put mine on 400, which is the max. The lowest is 100. You can go 1 by 1, so if you want 206 or 143, you can have that.
The 'Blurb statistics' are all default on, but you can change it. Here's the options:
Tumblr media
Now, all of these are pretty simple, so you can imagine what they all mean and do. The word count for each chapter is helpful for if you want to know if a chapter is really long, or short. 'Finish reading' for each chapter helps too.
Now, the 'Hide works' section. The 'many fandoms' part is just for if it's a crossover fic and you don't want those, I know I don't, so I should... probably turn that on.
If you turn it on, here's what it looks like:
Tumblr media
Each tick is 1 fandom. The default is 4. You can go up to 10 fandoms. For the language part, it opens a box saying 'Show only these languages:' when it's on. You can then type in the language you want to only show or select from the dropdown menu of a bunch of languages in alphabetical order.
For the 'author' part, which is... very helpful for me, you click it and this appears, as it does with 'tags':
Tumblr media
You simply type in their name and it hides the work. If you write, but don't like to see it in the search results/filters of your tags or fandoms, this is helpful.
For tags, you type in the tag, relationship or additional, doesn't matter, and it hides the work for it. The 'unless' part is obvious. I don't use that, but if you're very 'wellll i mean' about fic, then it's probably worth it.
Next, Style Tweaks.
Tumblr media
I don't use these, but it's likely helpful if any of them apply to your standard reading preferences.
Track Works is what you need to be logged in for, and you can easily do that by clicking the door icon near the 'Not logged in' and typing in your username. At least, that's what I did. No password needed.
I'll type out the warning in yellow:
'Track works is still a WIP (work in progress). This means that some parts might not always function properly.
Tracking of visited and marked for later works is not implemented yet. Also note that if you use AO3 Enhancements on multiple devices, like your pc and your phone, and they are both logged into the same AO3 account, kudos might not show up on one device if you give them on the other device. The fix for now is to simply open the work on the other device that is missing the kudos - it should then update and realise that you have indeed given kudos. The same applies to subscriptions and bookmarks.'
Here's the options:
Tumblr media
Just click what you want and then you're good. The Advanced is pretty much useless, but if you want to see how much data you use, then there you go. It's very small even after months of use for me, sitting at 149.26KB in 8-ish months.
So if you want to use any of these options but AO3 doesn't offer it, just get AO3 Enhancements. It's hella useful + free.
Also, small mention: AO3 Saver is good too. It tracks what works you visit, so if AO3 goes down or you want to find that ONE really good fic you read and remember the title but can't find it or want to see what you read, just go into the extension and it'll be a column, like this:
Fic name / [Date read]
Fic name / [Date read]
Fic name / [Date read]
Fic name / [Date read]
and so on. When you hover over one, you get the option to download it. It opens as a PDF in a new tab and from there do whatever you want with the PDF! It also saves drafts as well, but you can't download drafts. It just says work not found.
If it says anything about older archives, just hit 'Most Recent Archive' as the blue link and it'll open up.
Anyways bye!

I FINALLY CAN AUTOMATICALLY FILTER OUT AO3 TAGS ON MOBILE
Only works for android, sorry ios users
Tutorial here
The extensions I'm using are AO3 enhancements to help filter out fics with many fandoms tagged and ao3rdr which can filter out words (I use this to block the word RPF for example)

@wordbending yep! aside from filtering out any and every "male/female frisk/chara/kris" tag and variation thereof, if i catch an author misgendering them without signs of it in the tags, i make sure to filter out their profile so I don't risk stumbling into their work again. get filtered idiot
