An simple extension that I couldn't use youtube without. Keeps me on task while providing control granularity to use particular features as required.

Unfortunately, I don't have the money to donate to you, but I want you to know that you have made the greatest addition. Thank you. Be happy

this has sooo many good features to remove YouTube's useless, time wasting, brain washing, mind controlling and addicting features

The review below by "Jonny" is completely wrong. There are easy to find options where you can choose every single thing to be on or off. He apparently was too lazy to search for a few seconds.

This add-on is great. Does everything I hoped for.

"About this extension" includes a list of OPTIONS. However, as far as I can tell they are not actually optional—you may not actually choose which items to hide or not to hide. That is the only reason I installed the extension; I do not wish to hide ALL of those items.

Works like a charm. Delete all elements that distract or annoy you. I do not notice any perfomance slowing.

Me permite hacer exactamente lo que estaba buscando: usar youtube sin distracciones (página de inicio, shorts, recomendaciones), lo puedo personalizar como quiera. No quería bloquear toda la página sino simplemente ocultar ciertas partes del página como las recomendaciones y los shorts que me suelen ser muy tentadores.

i've been using unhook for a year now!

this extension has no effect on loading times and makes youtube usable again. i've encountered no bugs or issues.

Amazing add-on that helps me stay focused. Would be nice to hide views, the subscribe button and subscriber count separately however.

Great extension that does its job perfectly. Just, there's a minor issue when I disable the recommended videos section, the loading icon is continuously running and not disappearing.

Turns out I absolutely HATE Youtube's algorithm and the endless amount of clickbait which Youtube never do anything about it!

With this I can focus on my watching session without youtube constantly shoving me clickbait junk down my throat!
This is SELF-CARE! I don't need Recommended videos in the first place! I want to curate my own online experience without Mega-corpos telling me what to do.

I was originally introduced to this add-on to AVOID Youtube spoilers for Kingdom Hearts 3 when it got released.

Years later after getting completely disappointed with KH3 and losing interest with the series, I still have Unhooked installed!

Probably the most useful, flexible add-on for YouTube. Easy to toggle between settings.
Makes YouTube more intentional and less addictive: redirecting to my subscriptions feed, hiding YouTube Shorts, and hiding recommended videos.

works great with enhancer for yt
