- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14298956, 6 years agoWorks perfectly! Completely hides videos from annoying channels from homepage, suggested videos etc. It's like they don't exist anymore.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14258782, 6 years agoit works I just wish there was a option to not remove videos from channels you are already suscribed, other than that it does the job.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13808287, 6 years agoseems to work very well after video blocker stopped working. i stopped watching youtube for some time because all the crap i had to sift through to get something to watch. im not always looking for anything in particular but i know i cant stand 10000 videos of some 12 year old kid playing gta 5 because i watched one video 2 weeks ago on how to do something in the game. ive only run this add on a short while but if it keeps working like it is now i will be donating to improve and develop it further!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13944859, 6 years agoExtensions like this make browsing YouTube bearable. I just hope there will be consistent updates going forward. Kudos to the dev!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Anonymous user 92bq5r, 6 years agoThis is so far the best add-on for managing youtube. I hope to see it continue with updates.
I think adding the context menu to more places would be useful.
The block list can get quite large, so performance is important to avoid lag when loading youtube. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14219139, 6 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14114591, 7 years agoI use this addon to block annoying podcasts and other uploads from channels I usually like. It seems to work perfectly, including in the sub feed (I suspect the underlying requests rather than the page DOM are being filtered, but I haven't checked the source code). My only suggestions would be to add an option for tags, or to include a short "how-to" text on the options page itself without having to click through. Maybe even a quick Regex tutorial for newbies would be useful. Still, this addon gets the job done and causes no issues.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14069361, 7 years agoI first encountered BlockTube a month ago when its creator posted it on /r/firefox. It was then in beta and some of its functionality was limited to regular expressions—something that has since been much improved with a new UI. Now many of YouTube's annoyances can be fixed without hassle. Front page auto-generated playlists can be permanently removed through a checkbox and clickbait titles can be filtered by adding keywords.
BlockTube's “Block Video” and “Block Channel” features are so seamlessly integrated that I initially thought that they were added by Youtube themselves. Excellent! - Rated 5 out of 5by Eric Oden, 7 years agoA bit more complex than alternatives but that allows you more control over what you filter on YouTube, all in all, a great addon.
