- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur soupcant, 6 jierren lynThis add-on makes browsing YouTube much more peaceful and enjoyable!
Is there anything I can do about homepage videos briefly reappearing when I click a link to navigate to another page? E.g. when I am on the YouTube homepage and I click the link to view my Subscriptions, the homepage's suggested videos become visible again while the Subscriptions page loads.Tiririt n ineflayen

I'm not sure. The homepage is dynamically generated, so those suggestions are a bit tricky to remove. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Troom, 6 jierren lyn
- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur uneliasmarsu, 6 jierren lynComing from chrome i was scared this wasn't going to be as well maintained on Firefox, but so far it has been working flawlessly! However, on a portrait monitor while hiding the recommendations the player doesn't scale well when switching out of theater mode.

yeffeɣ-d deg 5 jierren lynwoo, team Firefox! :D
Yea, the extra whitespace from where the sidebar suggestions are hidden looks a bit odd. Might try to fix one day. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur trav, 6 jierren lynworks amazing on macos. Does not work on KDE neon 5.18 (linux distro). EDIT: I no longer use this distro so I can't test, all good on Elementary now :) Great add-on, brilliant

yeffeɣ-d deg 5 jierren lynHmm I haven't implemented it on Android. But I may have mistakenly checked a box somewhere saying that Android is supported. - Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur Corwin, 6 jierren lyn
- Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 12985410, 6 jierren lynDoesn't work in waterfox. The YT main page attempts to load an infinite number of videos to fill up the empty space, which is a problem I also ran into when trying to use ublock origin and blocktube to block videos on the main page - YT just replaces the blocked videos with new ones until all the empty spots are filled.
In the case of this add-on & YT's main page, both sides refuse to budge, so the browser gets stuck in a runaway loop of trying to load videos that will never appear, which freezes all tabs in your browser until you take matters into your own hands with task manager.
I'll update this review accordingly if this major issue is fixed in waterfox. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14614442, 6 jierren lynGreat add-on that has helped me with my productivity. Highly recommended.

- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur WaveOfWaves, 6 jierren lynFantastic idea for an add-on! I totally recommend this.
Bugs/Issues I found (Version 3.1.1, Firefox Windows 10 ver. 71.0):
- suggestions/comments still show if a video is accessed from outside of youtube (google, whatsapp, pasting link, etc.)
- suggestions/comments still show if a video page is refreshed (e.g. to fix buffering), or accessed by pressing the previous/next page buttons
- suggestions/comments still show if a video page is accessed via the suggestions side-bar (that shows up because of the above points)
- once suggestions/comments show (while blocked), they won't disappear until you close all youtube tabs, and access the site again from the homepage.
Suggestion:
- Have an option to disable youtube autoplay as well (as it's another distraction)Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 6 jierren lynThanks for the feedback WaveOfWaves!
I can't seem to recreate these issues, but I'll be sure to keep an eye out. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Boonkers, 6 jierren lynNice. Works fine for me. Thx to author. One wish: keep it update cause Google (which become a very bad ugly company and totally lost respect among a lot of users) continues tries to breach personal boundaries enforcing people to watch content which they don't want.

yeffeɣ-d deg 6 jierren lynThanks Boonkers! Yea there's certainly work to be done toward improving privacy in tech. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Brixter, 6 jierren lynThank you for this! Now my youtube is distraction free.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14113826, 6 jierren lynThanks to the dev! You rock man!
Works pretty fine. Needs more upgrade! - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 15274581, 6 jierren lyn
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14874324, 6 jierren lyn
- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 15088918, 6 jierren lynNo longer works, it will block user uploaded videos but movies are now showing up on the sidebar. It's a good extension, but it just needs that bug fixed to be perfect.

yeffeɣ-d deg 6 jierren lynThanks for the review! Movie suggestions should now be blocked as of this latest version. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur MrWolf, 6 jierren lynI watch alot of esports, this helps remove the spoils in comments and sidebar videos.

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14773823, 6 jierren lynWas looking for this feature for so long. Youtube recommendations are just disctracting so much, now they are finally gone! Super must to have Addon.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur narkro, 7 jierren lynI didn't even have to reload the page for this to block not only the sidebar videos, but the end-of-video suggestions as well.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Andre Bell, 7 jierren lynI would like to report this add on. For being awesome!!! Works perfectly to eliminate sidebar 'suggested' videos. Theater mode wasn't cutting it. The distracting suggestions would still show up esp if/when the controls mysteriously vanished in theater mode and had to revert to normal mode...thus seeing the rabbit hole distractions again. So far so good. Thx
UPDATE: AdBlocker Ultimate breaks this add-on. Just an FYI in case anyone using AU says this add-on doesn't work - Yettwasezmel 3 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 5979009, 7 jierren lynGood overall, but there's a bug in the current version, when comments are blocked search results don't show up too.

yeffeɣ-d deg 7 jierren lynshould be fixed in 3.0.3, thanks for letting me know about this bug :) Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 7 jierren lyndone! latest release (3.0.0) adds the option to hide comments :) thanks for the tip- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur sBRB4Q7, 7 jierren lynThanks for this!
Youtube suggestions are more than likely unrelated to the video or videos you're watching. It's especially bad if you clear out your browser often, like every time you close it. I finally had enough and searched for an extension like this, and here it is!
I don't think there are others like this, at least not the last time I checked AMO.
