Labels like “Easy”, “Medium”, and “Hard” on LeetCode can unintentionally shape how we approach a problem.
For some, “Hard” creates hesitation. For others, “Easy” makes a problem feel not worth attempting. In both cases, it's the label influencing the decision, not the problem itself.I built a small Chrome extension that hides difficulty tags across the platform.
The goal is to reduce cognitive bias and help developers focus purely on the logic and structure of each problem.
