Such a game changer! Customizable, simple, such a great way to block shorts and lessen doomscrolling
This is a great extension for filtering out the junk that's on youtube. I've tried all the others but they just don't have the organization, ease of use, and speed that this one has.
Incredible at helping me stay focused, but hiding videos on the homepage also applies to YouTube music and makes it completely unusable. I would appreciate it immensely if that could be fixed, as I use YouTube music very regularly. Edit: Issue has been resolved only 2 days later, massively appreciated ❤️
thats cool for real البرنامج جميل جدا ومفيد ويعمل على متصفحات غير chrome
finally i can remove shorts and posts filled with hate and bots
Great tools for people who can't stop clicking videos and binging them and helps focusing
^^ What he said
extremely useful and smooth!
should honestly charge for this, thanks so much!!
Just installed and I still see the "shorts" section on my youtube "subscriptions" page. Edit: By default, nothing is turned off, and it's not clear how to get into the config panel to make changes. I eventually found it though and was able to turn off what I wanted. Only 3 stars because most people are gonna give up when they can't find the config page.
