- (2024-12-18) 悪趣味な風: 最近機能しなくなった某アドオンと違ってどの場面でもきれいに消せているのが良いですね。 追記>プレイリストが消えない不具合も直していただきありがとうございました、一瞬表示されるように見えるのまでは許容範囲です。
- (2023-12-03) Sarah Mellinger: worked well did it's job until when you tried to block users it popped up with "you can not block this user" likely a youtube dependency that should be remedied.
- (2023-10-29) Анастасия Губаренко: thank you SO much for making this extension! it's exactly what i've been looking for! and the fact that regex is used here makes it so much easier to configure the filters (my first language has a complex word inflection system). now i don't have to worry about being triggered by disturbing thumbnails :)
- (2023-10-18) sodaguy: yes now i can block some bad channel and forgot it
- (2023-10-11) Antilazuli: Somehow when a Video is blocked on youtube, it leaves a blank space/ a hole on the canvas where the video was, I tried so fix it via a Tampermonkey script but it doesn't work that well... Could you fix it so that the hidden Videos on the Canvas are removed so that there are no holes?
- (2023-10-07) Allia Brice: Thank you.
- (2023-10-01) Excess 1972: exact what i am searching for ... thank you
- (2023-08-25) Thebest Celep: Best out there
- (2023-08-14) F S: Offers quite extensive options to block content on Youtube, BUT: sorely missing is an option to block 'upcoming' / 'Premieres on...' videos in feeds. PLEASE include this.
- (2023-08-02) Tifanny Santos: Funciona perfeitamente 02/08/23
- (2023-08-01) Олег Григорьев astra5555: Это расширение нарушает правила Интернет-магазина Chrome.
- (2023-07-30) Arman Hossain: Hey, it would be extremely helpful if you design a blocking button under videos (e.g. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/channel-blocker/nfkmalbckemmklibjddenhnofgnfcdfp). As you can see this channel blocker has a specific button to block quickly which is much more convenient. Hope you guys keeping this in mind. Thank you
- (2023-07-21) Little Hadlie: i love this extension, it makes me less anxious while watching youtube. the only problem is that i's prefer if you could prehaps remove the thumbnails of blocked videos? the thing i fear most while using youtube is seeing something terrifying like gore on a thumbnail... that's my only concern but besides that this extension is amazing :D
- (2023-06-22) D B (Fuji): It's arl, but it doesn't work on full screens and cinema mode
- (2023-06-13) T2: Add a button next to each user to block them, preferably their channel ID would be added to the blocklist, not their channel name.
- (2023-06-02) Артëм: Loved it
- (2023-05-29) til the end of the world: just AWESOME !!! cleans up all the YT trash
- (2023-05-20) Moizevitch MJ: Funciona! É só copiar o nome do canal (do YouTube) que deseja bloquear, colar no espaço destinado a bloqueio da extensão (Bloqueador de Vídeos para YouTube), e atualizar a página do YouTube. O canal bloqueado se quer aparece mais! Show! Agradeço aos desenvolvedores por essa extensão. 👍
- (2023-05-13) Wendy A.: It doesn't redirect the user. Everything is good about the extension but it doesn't redirect the user that clicks on the blocked video. You can still watch it if you're quick enough. Can you please add a feature to redirect the user back to the Youtube homepage if they click the blocked video?
- (2023-05-10) Patrick Rooter: Would be 5 stars but sadly it has problem with blocking more than ~1307 channels, it just doesn't work after that. Things you blocked are blocked but you can't add new.
- (2023-05-07) _ 8: 動画はブロックできるけどコメントがブロックできなくなってますね
- (2023-04-10) john es: Really good. Best blocker with the most advanced features. Problem: When I visit a video that should be blocked using an external link, I can still view the video on the page that I have visited. Am I doing something wrong, or is it supposed to work this way? For example, I can still watch a music video by pasting the video link even though i have blocked videos in the music category.
- (2023-03-30) Damian np: It does not block in suggested videos anymore.
- (2023-03-29) Mark Bulger: I've just started seeing videos with keywords I blocked last year. Maybe a Chrome update problem? All my blocked words are still listed, but I'm seeing them in suggested videos again.
- (2023-03-27) Ernesto M: No funciona, solo funciona por unos días
- (2023-03-23) Shrinivas Hegde: I loved it .. too good. Thanks for Saving My time for just scrolling and watching every video
- (2023-03-22) Luiz Lopes: Excelente! Procurava algo assim a tempos. Duas sugestão, poder bloquear vídeos por datas, pra quando só quisermos novidades e reorganizar a exibição pra encobrir o espaço dos vídeos bloqueados.
- (2023-03-03) Worvern Scar: the youtube channel blocker extension is back... at least until google accidentally upgrades youtube in such a way that accidentally breaks all blocker extensions... again
- (2023-02-21) Beauvoir A. Ferril: Works as intended. And excellently at that. What would make this extension perfect is the ability to block videos based on date/video age, as I often get videos that I've seen before, but don't wish to block the channel or that kind of video.
- (2023-02-15) Kindle: Good, but I would like to have the option to remove videos shorter than a specific time. Edit: Upgraded to 5 stars because it was added, and they also respond to feature requests.
- (2023-02-10) Marcus Belmont: that is what youtube really needs instead of changing their design
- (2023-01-17) kun po: this is amazing. it has everything I need. Thank you.
- (2022-12-26) Anil Bapna: Exceptional
- (2022-12-23) JuniperCruse: Works great so far, my biggest pet peeve when searching for videos of my favorite category was the thousands of click-bait videos. I just wanted an app that could block these videos from showing on my feed so I can access the worth-while content. It worked exactly as I wanted it too and was easy to use, I can even block tags like "sports" which I don't have a interest in, and those annoying YouTube shorts that were clogging up my subscription tab.
- (2022-12-09) The Fan: Appreciate your work. Doesn't work on the videos tab of a channel though. And I would like to have a feature to whitelist channels, so they are not affected by the title blocker. Update: The new version 3.0 deleted everything I entered! But the blocker works on the videos tab now.
- (2022-11-17) G doc: this is almost perfect and here is some suggestion which make it more perfect . recrate issue by disable extension from pop menu then set keep disable for 5 min. after 5 min extension will turn on again . now disable for 2nd time. here i am expecting to remember five min timer for auto turn on but it get disable till turn on again mannly so if you forget to do that you tube will eat hour from my life
- (2022-11-08) Davis Bentley: The ability to filter by tags and categories is very useful but my api key reach a limit in under a month. 300,000 api requests in under a month and like a 20% error rate makes me wonder if this extension is doing additional stuff using the api key that it hides from the user. I would not use.
- (2022-10-27) Rud Gus: I finally found Youtube blocker that works.
- (2022-10-07) Cris P: It works great to block those clickbait channels and youtubers.
- (2022-09-21) Ash: Very helpful, thank you! As far as I can tell it's working as intended.
- (2022-09-19) Joeri: Nice extension for blocking spoilers :D
- (2022-09-19) blucat 4: Update: As of Sept 2022, it doesn't seem to work properly, some bug has crept in? Or maybe it's a Windows problem, just letting the developer know. Well this extension has been updated, and now it's pretty good. You can block videos or channels. You can still get to a video/channel by typing in it's exact url, but it won't show up in your suggestions. It now shows the number of videos blocked on this page, and the number in total, which I was confused about. And it works as of August 2021, a lot of the others don't work anymore because Youtube keeps changing things. So, all good. :-)
- (2022-02-22) Todo Lo mejor: Hola dejo de funcionar la extencion me dice que supere la cuota, hay algun inconveniente? ''Status Code: 403 The request cannot be completed because you have exceeded your quota.''
- (2021-11-16) Louw Coetzer: Was working 100% until yesterday, 16 Nov 2021. Hereafter, any attempt to play a video saved in a playlist FROM the playlist, results in the browser being redirected by Youtube back to the Explorer page. There is definitely something that changed on Youtube's side yesterday that is not yet compensated for in this awesome plugin...I sincerely hope the devs will be able to resolve this and I sincerely thank them for their generosity and for making this tool available to us. PS: To continue using this, I had to DISABLE the "Block opened videos" checkbox. Even after resetting the extension to its defaults, hence removing all channel names etc...it would still not work unless I uncheck this checkbox...
- (2021-10-29) Bigattck Firecat: worthless, it only blocks 269 channels, doesn't block keyword channels without code and video block may also have a limit.
- (2021-06-01) Todo Lo mejor: hola , en la configuracion de la api me pregunta ¿Qué API estás usando? que pongo en esa situacion? ya que en la configuracion no lo aclara..
- (2021-04-24) Zenboy: Muito bom, consegui bloquear os gurus do Marketing. Que por mais que falem coisas que ajudam a dar "uns insights" de como ganhar dinheiro. São bem chatos quando o algoritmo do youtube começa a spammar eles na nossa pagina inicial...
