- Rated 5 out of 5by ЯромиR, 4 years ago😭 😭 It Just STOPPED WORKING !!! 😭 😭
Last FF update started conflicting ( often showed message "extension "ChanelBlocker" is slowing browser") and then suddenly the "X" button beside channels just disappeared 😟
Now all BS from SeweryTube just flooding all kind of trash to my "suggested" column and there's no my main instrument for kicking them out of my eyes... 😭😭😭
I found in "about:config" this bold new mark:
"gfx.blacklist.direct2d.failureid FEATURE_FAILURE_DL_BLOCKLIST_g984" - Rated 5 out of 5by poketman22, 4 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by chuchu, 4 years agothanks for making this, i like to watch military stuff and it has a flood of fake generated videos with robotic voices. thanks for saving my sanity.
- Rated 5 out of 5by stormer, 4 years agoI simply cannot understand how YT recommends content for me to watch. Gender reveals, cartoons, football, kardsah!an clan, channels in a foreign language... aargh! Most irritating to scroll through the suggested videos.
And YT itself does honor my choosing not to see these channels anymore.
Well, this extension is the best one I have tried that manages to block suggested channels. I have blocked multiple channel by name, blocked by keywords, and happily report that there is no noticeable slowdown. Most importantly, YT is now watchable again. Well done to the developer, a 5 star rating is deserved. - Rated 4 out of 5by yd1, 4 years agocouldn't imagine youtube without this blocker!
thank you for saving us from evil and bad channels
Edit: Note some channels this add-on wont block you have to type channel name manually! - Rated 5 out of 5by korbitr, 4 years agoWorks perfectly again, thanks for keeping this extension up to date!
- Rated 5 out of 5by hasimsait, 4 years agoWorks as intended. I love how my fan ramps up when I open the homepage of youtube. I even received the "this extension is slowing down firefox" notification once. Watching recommendations disappear one by one is fun. Wish youtube added the block feature. Great job, wish there was not a need for it. Also the ability to sync block list with firefox account would be great, I dualboot and use multiple pcs, I have to sync them up once a week to get rid of what youtube thinks I'd watch that week

- Rated 5 out of 5by Creed Bratton, 4 years agoThank you so so much!!! I've been looking for a way to hide a user from search results cause it was seriously annoying me due to the way she titles her videos. Finally she is gone.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15630225, 4 years agoNeeds updating. Stopped working on recommended video list in right-hand column - now only works on Home and Trending pages (neither of which I use). Presumably youtube made some changes that broke it. Now effectively useless for me. Hope they make the necessary upgrades.
- Rated 4 out of 5by IQman, 4 years agoonly 4 star because unable to toggle it on and off and X button suspiciously missing on "for you" tab
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16123870, 4 years agoHas started having issues giving you the option to remove a channel on search pages.

- Rated 5 out of 5by luarocks, 4 years agoThe best youtube extension ever. It should be prebuilt in firefox!

- Rated 4 out of 5by 404, 4 years agoIf the next video is blocked by a keyword, the autoplay button will also disappear.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Sartorius, 4 years agoWorks, does exactly what it advertises, and easy to use! But may require an update; I'm no longer able to block the "Trending" channels.

- Rated 5 out of 5by QuantumDrone, 4 years agoWorks even better than advertised. Beautiful job, and love the smooth animation on blocking a channel in the search results. Instant must-have for all future Firefox installs.
- Rated 4 out of 5by andario2007, 5 years agoThis a GREAT addon, with excellent functionality.
My main problem, after using if for year or so (and not working for a while, now fixed), is that it slows down Youtube page loads to a crawl.
I´ve even tried moving my entire Youtube profile to a Ramdisk, to maximize speeds, and more often than not, I still get a top bar telling me "This addon is slowing down your browser", or something like that.
If you manage to make this FASTER, and more capable of reading hundreds/thousands of blocked channels, an addon worth paying for, indeed.
Cheers! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5902571, 5 years agoGreat way to filter your YouTube feed and comments sections. Regex matching is fantastic for filtering out movie, show, or game spoilers, memey comments, and the like. Highly recommend for fine-tuning your YouTube experience (and worth learning regex for)!
