really useful!

a lot of youtube extensions do too much to change the intended experience. This suite of tweaks and optional features has got to be the best way to enjoy the platform.

Edit: Got the update on 7/7/2025 and everything seems to be working again. Much appreciated. I'd really forgotten how unbearable YT is without add-ons like this.

Most options work as advertised, but currently (7/4/2025) the options involving the side bar on the watch page such as opening channels from the sidebar, hide shorts and other items, and dim watched videos seem to be broken. Similar functions on other extensions seem to be broken as well, so I'm guessing YT updated something recently that borked it for everyone. It'd be great to get that fixed. It baffles me that I even need an extension to get YT to stop shoving the same 98% watched videos in my face constantly.

Please check the Search settings in the plugin. They don't seem to be working properly in grid view. The Youtube search page is crumbling. Shorts ruin everything.

I installed it to fix the comically large default thumbnails, but this has so much more! Especially love the themes... and being able to get rid of shorts.

it just works

I love this extension and I have a feature request, can you possibly add in a toggle to block that "This video contains paid promotion" Banner/Subtitle, CC button, and Unmute button on Thumbnails? I accidentally click on them all the time in the compact view.

This addon works like a charm. Well done !

clean UI, removes shorts, fixes thumbnails and much more... ❤️🫡
