Binnen-I be gone

Binnen-I be gone is a Chrome extension that removes the most common instances of Binnen-Is on visited German-language websites. Binnen-Is are attempts to show gender neutrality in written German language. However, some people find their usage negatively affects the readability of texts, and they are not part of the official spelling.

The latest version of Binnen-I be gone, 3.1, includes bug fixes. Previous versions, such as 3.0, introduced the ability to filter Binnen-Is in the form of “Schüler·innen” and various other improvements. Version 2.7 and 2.6 also included various filter enhancements. The extension has a user interface in the form of a settings page, allowing users to specify websites to be exempted from filtering or to remove Binnen-Is only on certain pages.

Overall, Binnen-I be gone is a useful Chrome extension for those who prefer to read German-language websites without Binnen-Is, offering improved readability without altering the official spelling.
