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].
