This extension works wonderfully and has made my experience a lot better overall, but there are a few problems to be mindful of before you install:
1) It doesn't work on the end screen video wall and YouTube seems to prioritize showing you whatever you're trying to block. I got the same video four(!) times in a row on mine when it only ever showed up on my homepage before. Blocking it entirely is a must.
2) Something about how this extension blocks videos seems to make YouTube think you're engaging with them, so expect your algorithm to get noticeably worse. For example, after I blocked spiders, I started getting an influx of videos about other bugs with less than pleasant thumbnails, so I've had to start blocking a bunch of other bug-related keywords too.
Other than that, it's very intuitive to use, convenient, and helpful! I recommend it.

Doesn't work on Firefox mobile unfortunately

Edit: developer says Android mobile should be working soon, I'm looking forward to it and will update my review when it's ready

Works great on mobile

Unlike all the others, this extension actually works for me (in 2026) in hiding videos on YouTube. Would recommend.

When YouTube ignores your "not interested," a FOSS creator saves the day!

So far so good.

It's working well with 2 caveats which both involve the Mobile version of Youtube (m.youtube).

Using the browser on the phone instead of the app is better than using the mobile app.

Caveat 1.) Sometimes blocked channels show up, but just a quick reload and it's all fine.

Caveat 2.) No ability to block a channel on mobile. The Menu dots do not have the option to ad to the filter. I have to jump onto the computer and manually ad some of the channels to the filter.




This extension is 100% on my recommend.

I say use this, in combination with Sponsor blocker, Custom Scripts, and a couple of other extensions to make Youtube on Mobile browser the *superior* version of Youtube.

This extension alone is already superior to Youtube's "Do not recommend" feature. It basically does the job of the official option but it actually works.

so far it works perfect, better than the old blocktube in most aspects.

the only thing it's lacking at the moment is a way to import blocked sites from a list. i have a long list of channels and adding them one by one in each computer would be exhausting.

thanks for this indispensable extension.

Not the hero we deserve but the hero we need, this extension is awesome and much smoother compared to other filters. The UI is really user friendly, keep up the good work!
