About this extension
RetroTube is a Firefox extension for bringing back an older, simpler YouTube experience. Choose a year cutoff to hide newer videos and browse YouTube with less recent content, or independently hide YouTube Shorts. RetroTube is designed for people who want to slow down, escape the constant stream of newer content, and recreate the more relaxed, fun atmosphere of YouTube from a few years ago.
RetroTube works locally in your browser, stores your preferences locally, and does not require an account, external API, or backend service. It does not collect or transmit your browsing data.
