    This add-on completely changed how I use YouTube. Before, I was addicted and wasted a lot of time. Now, I'm still addicted (a lot less though) but waste a lot less time. It's ideal for anyone who wants to use YouTube still, but be protected a bit more from the rabbit hole that exists and pushes for an internet that is one where the user is control, not big tech. Whilst using this, I've started using some great features, including watch later, which allow me to have even more control over what I watch, almost completely removing the power that suggestions have. I would recommend to everyone.

    Works perfect. Now I only have to find out how to prevent myself from deactivating it when the addiction kicks in.

    Thanks for the review!

    I've added a "timer" setting which might help to prevent deactivating.

    When enabled, it forces you to wait 10 seconds before changing any of the changes.

    Awesome AddOn, I have nothing bad to say about this.

    Two Feature suggestions though:

    The first one is: I found it nicer, when the AddOn icon was in the URl bar, because I was frequently switching stuff on and off. Could you integrate an option so I can decide where I want to have the AddOn icon? (I saw that someone suggested to move it to the addon bar on the right and you replied two weeks ago)

    Second thing:

    How about an option to mark spoilers in a video, so that I can skip these as well?


    Thanks for reading and keep on the great work!

    Thanks for the review, and the suggestions!

    1) I tried adding the icon to both the URI bar and the AddOn bar, but unfortunately Chrome does not allow both at once. And I'd prefer to keep the same code base for both browsers. Sorry!

    2) I think it's outside the scope of this extension. It'd be hard to collect and save that info.

    Edit: Perfection!

    This add-on is worthy of 5 stars.
    I would like to be able to hide the little icon in the navigation bar, I promise to change the review to 5 if this is fixed! If it literally can't be fixed and I will still change it to 5 as long I am notified! :)

    Done! As of version 4.1.0, the icon no longer shows up in the URL bar. It's now to the right (next to the other extension icons).

    Thank you for providing the option to use YouTube without distracting and addictive suggestions.
    Worked well for me :)

    i have to connect myself to the preposter of his review:
    thank you very much. I was SOOOOOOOO relieved when I openned YouTube and it was a blank page for ME to CHOOSE what to watch. Thank you so very very much!
    Thanks for that plugin!
