In laptop if I tap V on keyboard I can see recommendations and on the mobile if I swipe up on the full screen so if the recommendations are still coming I am till addicted to it I have block home page and shorts and even search bar but its easy to go from one videos to another so pls help by fixing it

Abandoned, high ratings are 2+ years old. Unhook has a symbiotic relationship with "Improve YouTube!" -- both are broken as of 2026 without the other. Features breaking with every new YT and FF update,eg, Endcards no longer hide. Feels like the end of an era of peak YouTube extensions

This would be a great add-on if the developers made sure it's consistently up to date. I've been having issues with embedded YouTube videos for months now, on both Firefox and Chrome. It just doesn't work as it should, causing embedded youtube videos not to play at all. Can also produce flickering that can be very annoying, and may potentially trigger seazures in people with epilepsy.

Used to be a must have but it's in dire need of updates. It messes with Pocket tube. "Hide explore, Trending" in particular. Last update was in 2024.

Needs an update. Some of the toggles hide the wrong thing.

YT has changed and the hide Explore option now hides the You (history, playlists, watch later) section. Needs an update as YT has remixed the backend a bit.

No longer blocks end of video recommendations after YouTube released the new UI :cccccc

Most other features still work, but I really need all features to work.

Was good but now features started to not work. In need of an update.

Some of the features work however one of the more important ones of hiding annotations doesn't seem to work. I'm still constantly turning that off manually. ex. YT at VSeFUFWXoZA ca. September 12, 2025

No longer hides shorts on Android

Кнопка скрыть комментарии скрывает и плейлисты тоже в мобильной версии сайта.

I don't see an option to hide thumbnails.

Isn't compatible with mobile

Sadly, it broke PocketTube. It removes its section from YouTube sidebar for some reason.

I hope you can fix it.

This add-on works well but I wanted to make it hide shorts in my subscriptions, and noticed it isn’t feasible… so I want to head to GitHub and… oh wait, it’s actually not OpenSource!

And even more: the license explicitly restricts any possibility to check what this extension actually does. Really sus.

I’ll switch to code4charity’s Improve YouTube extension then.

I recently couldn't figure out why YouTube videos were taking so long to begin playing (I'm talking 30-60+ seconds). It wasn't my internet (high speed) nor my computer (buffy gaming computer) that was the problem. The video would load just fine when it actually started to play, but it took forever for it to buffer enough to start to play the video. I would often have to refresh the page when the video would seemingly freeze in infinite buffering.

Turns out, it was this extension all along, even though I ONLY used it to remove the trending page tab on the sidebar. How exactly does removing a tab in the sidebar even affect playing a video at all?
