for those who use firefox quantum: extension still works, but...

1. you have to switch to new youtube format/layout
2. maybe you will need to clear cookies that contain "google" and "youtube" from your browser first

i noticed that some parts of youtube server are different from the new layout so video blocker won't work on them, but if you're watching your favourite content, the right pannel with suggested videos will be filtered with video blocker rules, the same as with search results on the main page, so that means this extension is still useful.

Doesnt work anymore. Im using old youtube format

Doesn't work. At all.

it does work for chrome, but dont work for firefox. please fix

まったく機能してません。
早く修正して欲しいです。

my laptop : old style youtube. & old firefox (not Quantum).
this plug-in is not working.

IT USED TO WORK GREAT. I READ AN ARTICLE/POST WRITTEN BY THE DEVELOPER. HE STATED THAT HE WAS SO SAD AND SORRY BUT HE HAS A NEW LIFE AND DOESN'T HAVE TIME TO WORK ON IT OR FIX IT. HE PROBABLY WAS PAID OFF BY GOOGLE TO "NOT" FIX IT! EITHER WAY, IT DOESN'T WORK SINCE THE YOUTUBE BOOBS CAME OUT WITH THIS NEW PLATFORM.

Marvelous! Last I checked, the Chrome version was broken but I hope it get's fixed soon.

One my favorite Firefox Add Ons. I have about 580 blocks defined, most of them mainstream media and clickbait channels. Some channels aren't that bad, but if they use click-bait headlines, I block them. Period. Little persistent bug is that your browser hangs if you click on a video from- or land on a channel you have blocked. Videos from blocked channel usually doens't show in searches or recommended list, but sometimes it does and it might trick you into clicking, resulting a frozen browser. So 4/5 stars. Well deserved.

1) search for channel name on youtube search.
2) right-click on the name of the channel to block
3) block videos from this channel

Thank you firefox_is_open_source for your comment. I was going to to give up on this add on till i saw your comment.
After all that hard work developer getting bad review because he forget mention it clearly how this work. May be its some thing obivious for user who used this addon previously but no for first time users like me.
Any way thank you Dev for your hadwork. Keep up the good work.

About addon- Works like a charm. You can filter useless you tube garbage through this nicely. After blocking channels, better to add channel name as a keyword for popular channels.

Dude this should be the most popular add-on on Firefox. You could be making a fortune in donations if the add-on was maintained and updated more often. Once again the add-on is not working properly.

"DO OR DO NOT,... THERE IS NO TRY."

Works perfectly. Very good.

not working bye

No longer works

Works great to hide all the channels YT forces on you. Working on Firefox Nightly 59.

Doesn't work anymore.

Not being able to use the extension is killing me.

This used to be a brilliant add-on. I don't know if it's because of upgrades and changes to Firefox, YouTube/Google, or Windows, but it's become a total resource whore. Blocking more than a few YouTube channels sends Disc usage to 100%, memory goes through the roof - up to 97% - and my computer freezes completely until I go to Task Manager and end Firefox which is eating all the memory it can. I can watch it going from, say, 111MB and slowly climbing to up past the 2,900MB mark. YouTube give me there error message saying a Firefox app is the problem. Video Blocker is always the culprit.

Hides comments that i haven't blocked for some reason.

Great and very helpful extension. It saves my life.

Doesn't work, doesn't do anything at all.

Works great, like the description says you can chose how you block by video, channel or keywords. No more annoying "recommended for you" from certain channels that youtube pushes because they are partners.


I had this on Firefox and had to clear plugins so I'm going back and gathering up all the plugins I used previously.
I just had to get this one again.

Edit: Because of the people in the comments saying it doesn't work anymore I just checked it on youtube as of the date of writing this, November 18, 2017 I can confirm on my PC Video Blocker STILL works.
