I cannot thank you enough
Christopher Martinez
Works the vast majority of the time. Could you please make the extension also block videos that show up after a video finishes? It appears as if the extension does not work there yet
Ryan Barb
add so you can remove the view button plz
hamza ab
can you add option to disable this on the search page i have to manually disable this extension everytime i search something and i cant find option to disable it there
Osito
This doesn't work on Firefox
Ryo
makes other youtube features not work correctly. for example sometimes i go to click the 3 dots and it plays the video instead. ruins the youtube interface. can't stand it.
Liam
The best extension alongside UBO. I cant use dogshitTube without it
Essell
Initial impressions are impressive. No longer have to view nonsense. Will update if my experience changes.
Laurie Wounaris
I can finally block mean, cruel, sociopathic content.
Brandon Silva
Incredible extension, but recently there is a problem where, the extension doesn't trigger right away, for a few days now I've been opening Youtube, and the front page has blocked videos. If I click and try to block them, the extension options simply aren't there. It requires me to manually turn off and on the extension for it to work.
Victor Qian
Finally a way to block fake news channels, youtube should have this by default
KRISHNA TAPDIYA
best app if you wish to become the best of you. you will become productive after using this app.

Since Channel Blocker looks to be abandoned, I found this extension and so far it works like a charm.
Mike Bilel
Amazing tool with so much flexibility. Here's one wish I have: a whitelist function for specific URLs or pages like the sub feed. I do want to continue blocking suggested videos and random channels I peruse but not necessarily my sub feed. I would like to make an exception for channels that I like. Hopefully that makes sense!
Frank Wren
Good, but needs an option to skip to the next autoplay video when there's a blocked video. Sick of coming back to my PC after a while to just see the "blocked video" overlay burning in. This is what led me to uninstall it and go to a different extension.
Ashwin Newoor
Excellent app. Could you please add some features like setting an automatic timer. After unblocking, you can only watch for 30m after which the extension is activated automatically. Make it harder to disable, like prevent editing. Furthermore, increase the number of clicks to disable, 1000 is not that hard lol.

keep updating i want more adjusted content to feet my interests :) love the idea so much
Adi Samudro

Works just a few frames late but it is a lot better than not having it
Ryota Matsumura
junk, it doesn't work
Jay
Bless your soul for this. Now I can block annoying users.
Inti Nemogá Stout
Amazing tool, very capable. I use it with UnHook and my experience on youtube is so much more intentional now
Bloxy Cirkit
This is one of the best extensions I have ever downloaded. At first, it was just a little bit complicated, but I got the hang of it. I would highly recommend the use of this extension.
Minhtuananh Nguyen
If too many channels are blocked, the extension got bug, some clips from blocked channels will still appear in the recommended videos section.
Hope Banks
I have tried this extension before and had to delete it in a troubleshooting process of tracking an issue on my device. I just reinstalled it, it blocks the channels I click to block and that is really all I need.
Amaros Nithe
This extension is good but it literally can't go a single week without something breaking (videos, channels, comments aren't being blocked anymore, blocked content display becoming buggy, buttons stop working, buttons disappearing.. etc), which is extremely annoying.
ERICK Carb
Excellent, I found an extension that works super fast and well.
SMAXSOST
I downloaded it only to block premiere videos in my YouTube subscriptions page, but the extension doesn't block these videos at all. I'm really disappointed 😞

You can remove the dumb political videos from both side 👌, sick of politics

Lyn “Evildoer”
just got this extension since blocktube (albeit being a nice extension) was acting funny. there's context menu options & a manual-adding page! very nice for blocking AI channels :^)
DEMONGRAVE666

After the recent update it works again. Excellent tool to remove all the Russian propaganda from the suggested video list
Yeah Nope

Heidi Myers
does not work
Maple
No longer works. All the videos I blocked started popping back
Dylan Kennett
No Longer works
O O
You broke it. A real shame.. Why do you insist on updating something that works just fine and then break it in the process?
Hope Banks
"add block button to channel"....NO block button "blocks channels on youtube" .... No, no it does not. I am removing this, it's useless. I want to block entire channels with one click, and that extension does not exist.
Shed PC Next Gen Upgrade
Wasn't as good as Blocktube when it worked (still took up space where the video would've been, red x was way too small risking clicking on some garbage) and now it doesn't work at all. There is no red x and none of the filters are working. At least Unhook still works so I can remove the irrelevant "recommendations" sidebar entirely, and Unhook can redirect me to the subscriptions page when I click on the YT icon in the top left.
Jordan
This extension is working slightly. idk what happened to the red X button moving from home page, Its now showing on the persons channel no longer on home page so idk if this is working since i don't see the overlay much. The comments get blocked sometimes. I used to use blocktube which is abandoned then i chose this one and it was working good but as of 30th August its been okay not the best. The latest update happened on 27th. I know this extension isn't abandoned so i hope everything gets sorted so it can run smooth
Russell
This was a great extension...when it still worked. As of a few days ago it is no longer functioning, and there haven't been updates from the developer as to whether it will ever be fixed.
John Doe
in the current development stage of this extension, i'm not really happy with it (with chrome browser). the previous extension that i used named "BlockTube", was at least able to hide also blocked channels along with the content from the previews, but YTblock does not! When i want to hide something, then i want it vanished from the preview thumbnails as well. period!
Ben Phillips
Not working as of 29-08-2025,dont install this extension
