Just submitting a link here for visibility, hopefully it'll come up in someone's google search later on and help them. The blogpost is about a list of filters I came up with to try and make websites like Twitter and Reddit less stressful. (List of filters at https://github.com/shijithpk/hide_like_counts_with_ublock )

You copy the filters into the adblocker uBlock Origin, after which all elements on their webpages that show any stats, eg. like counts, retweet counts, karma points, upvotes etc. get hidden.

This is mainly for desktop users. You could possibly use these filters in adblockers other than uBlock Origin, not tested it though.

Hopefully, Twitter and Reddit will introduce settings like Instagram/Facebook have to hide like counts, but till that happens, this filter list is a handy option.
