Does anyone know an easy way to hide "Popularity" with a userscript or
userstyle? I currently call
$("input[type=text]").unbind().attr("autocomplete", "on"); to disable
search suggestions since I can't stand websites suggesting that I do
popular things.I'm sure this is a useful metric for some, but I'm not fond of seeing a column of almost all zeros in searches. I think the only packages that maintain a high popularity will be things like yaourt where people keep voting it up because they mistakenly think it will one day go to [community].
