People complaining that it doesn't work: You need to go into settings and change them. All the setting seem to be off by default. You must make the change yourself and choose what to block!

Anyhow this is is exactly what i needed. Thanks!

Edit: as of 5/16/26 it seems the music mix recommendations are not being blocked anymore. still a great tool hope to get an update soon!

I like the idea of this extension a lot and wish I could use it, I am autistic and find the way the dumb big idiocracy style phone style format is forced on me really annoying, I want the grid where I can look at all the results quick and try find what I actually want to look at instead of scrolling through junk... BUT... I have installed it, enabled the options to hide mix and shorts, and I am still getting big blocks of "Mix" showing up at top of search results as well and the huge rows of awful Shorts slop - the options don't seem to be working though I am getting a grid results of sorts it's ruined by the thing of Google where they keep trying to force you into shorts by spamming rows of shorts every 4 or so actual search results, then doing sponsored video slop too, so it breaks up the usefulness of the grid search

Basically - grid view is broken up by mix slop up at the top, then endless rows of shorts shorts, playlist, sponsored that are so spammed that it breaks up any chance of a readable grid. It seems google are fully phoneposter now

COOL

Русский язык где?

Great extension, things mostly work, but I still get mixes on of recommendation and I can not get that blocking function to work.

Not working to hide watched videos and three months since last update.

It's ok at the very best, actively worse in cases.
I wanted to look up the video 'I will be' from the creator ozumiiwizard...

I searched for 'ozu I will be', and it showed me some stupid mix first and didn't give me the video by itself.

Ok, maybe YT is dumb, so I'll disable it from showing playlists in search.

It now no longer shows me ANYTHING related to the song.

I tried it in a private window, just to see if it's the extension or not... IT IS THE EXTENSION that actively filtered out the video I was searching for.

It's possible that it did it several times in the past while I was searching for a video I remembered and wanted to rewatch, but I can't know in all honesty.

If you install this, search for videos to try it out if it actually makes search better for you or not.

This works so incredibly!! I can finally use YouTube again. I literally can't believe how broken the search function was before this, it was so cluttered and gross, I'm so glad this makes it functional again, thank you so much!!

Got so used to Youtube behaving reasonably that when I tried a new browser without the extension I thought it had broken. Went back to add it as soon as I could!

Absolute poo. Its supposed to hide Shorts when searching. THE ONLY THING THAT SHOWS UP IN SEARCH ARE SHORTS, not one single regular video. And don't tell me it's a conflicting plugin, I went so far as to delete every other one I had, and reset the system, to try and troubleshoot the issue.

Doesn't do anything.

straight up doesnt work

I love everything about this, except that I can not make it work. It does nothing, and under the stats menu it has also not blocked anything yet. I run a few other plugins, i.e. uBlock Origin and Privacybadger. YouTube is run inside FF Multiaccount Container, but when in window and hovering plugin it says it has access to the site/YouTube.

I would like to change my review if I get it to work, but until that I can not really give a better score.

All the best to the developer though, great features and it looks like it works for most people.

I wish there was a similar extension for YT home feed
