About this extension

Reads your "Watch Later" list through your own, already logged-in YouTube session (no API key needed).
A background script periodically fetches youtube.com/playlist?list=WL and extracts the video IDs.
On youtube.com, an injected script detects video tiles (homepage, search, recommendations) and dims or fully hides any video whose ID is on your "Watch Later" list, depending on your chosen mode.
In "Hide" mode, tiles are removed cleanly from the grid, no YouTube reload needed, pure DOM reflow.
A subtle status badge next to the YouTube logo shows when dimming/hiding is active (can be turned off in the popup).
The list refreshes automatically every 15 minutes, plus on every YouTube navigation and manually via the popup.
No data is ever sent to third parties. Everything runs locally in the browser (storage.local); the only network request goes directly to youtube.com using your own session.
Not affiliated with YouTube or Google.
