Unhook is incredibly effective at removing YouTube distractions, significantly improving focus. The core functionality is brilliant and much appreciated.

However, I'm giving it 1 star due to a critical issue: it is closed-source. This lack of transparency is a major concern. We, the users, cannot verify the code we are running in our browsers. This presents potential security and privacy risks, as there's no way to audit the extension for hidden tracking or malicious behaviour. Trust requires transparency.

I genuinely love what this extension does, and I would instantly change my rating to 5 stars if the developers embraced free and open-source principles.

I strongly urge other users to request this change as well. Open source is vital for user security and trust in browser extensions. Developers, please consider making Unhook open-source. The concept is fantastic, but its closed nature prevents a wholehearted recommendation.

Makes the home page of YouTube go BLANK!

This app appeared good but started to crash my tabs in Firefox. Beware, it might not hold up.

Not maintained. Has been broken for months without fix

Currently it breaks Youtube, I can only see blank screen when it is enabled.

A O

Apparently no more legacy support for Windows 7, which I had to find out over weeks myself while trying to find out why it stopped working from one day to the next.

It doesn't work on Android.

can only remove all the feed; not just the "sponsored" ads

Keeps saying "unhook is not on," but it is and I can't figure out how to fix it, so useless.

Nothing to click for "options". Worthless.

"About this extension" includes a list of OPTIONS. However, as far as I can tell they are not actually optional—you may not actually choose which items to hide or not to hide. That is the only reason I installed the extension; I do not wish to hide ALL of those items.

nothing appearing

Haven't been blocking recommendation at the end of the video on the new UI for quite some time. Probably abandoned. Used to be good.

There is an alternative that actually worked.

"Disable auto-play" does not disable auto-play.

It use to work but now it no longer removes 'Shorts', and that is the main reason I downloaded this app.
