This is the best addon EVER (along with ones like NoSquint and that can change Firefox's system font)!!! I didn't know I needed it so badly, or that it could help me make the internet so extremely clean and 90's! In combination with the "Remove It Permanently" add-on, I can block anything I want extremely easily, which often ends up being anything that is ugly, annoying, or that clutters up a webpage.

Because I usually have the font size of a webpage enlarged, sometimes this really messes up the site's layout (because no one thinks about half-blind people and their layouts aren't at all expecting a font size bigger than 10px...) and then I can usually remove an image or something that's getting in the way of, say, the search bar.

Mostly I use this on sites that I'm visiting more than once. Good examples being online dictionaries (I blocked the tons of crap on Jisho.org where it says stuff like "This kanji is 22435 in book x"), Memrise (blocked a whooole bunch of text and images, including the header image), Tradera.se (blocked stuff like "my bookmarks" that obstructed the search bar), Tumblr (blocked stuff like "my follower count" and "suggested blogs to follow" along with the ad on the sidebar) and there's just various other sites I visit at least semi-frequently where I blocked things like chatboxes, Twitter feeds, Facebook/Twitter "like" buttons and so on. I think it's very important to note that you can also block specific small pieces of text, for example a single paragraph.

I'm not sure how much faster it makes pages to load, but it's not like I'm blocking all the images on a page either. I also have other addons installed that do stuff like block Google's tracking and hide all comments, which might help the speed... So for me it's not about loading stuff faster, it's just about making me way less irritated when I go online.
