Latest version
Version 1.0.31
Released Aug 31, 2026 - 105.85 KBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterWhat's new in 1.0.31 (since 1.0.29):
FIXED: YouTube subscriptions page no longer appears empty after navigating back from a video. YouTube keeps previously visited pages cached in the background, and the extension was mistakenly hiding the cached subscriptions feed while you watched a video. Your subscriptions now display correctly without needing a page refresh.
IMPROVED: Feed hiding now ignores YouTube's cached background pages entirely, so allowed pages (Subscriptions and channel Videos tabs) always show their content.
INTERNAL: Added a Safari build target and updated build tooling and icons. No changes to permissions or data handling.Source code released under MIT License
