- (2023-08-15) Kubes' Content: Hiding watched videos works on the home page, but hides all suggested videos when on a video's page.
- (2023-05-25) Emma Chmelová: good
- (2022-12-05) Топпер Харли: В описании написано что расширение убирает shorts. В реальности оно пытается лишь убрать кнопку shorts, но даже этого не может сделать и вместо нее убирает кнопку Подписки. Посмеялся вголос и удалил нафиг это недоразумение.
- (2022-11-12) Kamen Dochev: A great way to stop myself from watching Shorts, thanks! Maybe change the color of the pause and play button on the top right, too visible now.
- (2022-07-22) Lyubomir: Works great
- (2022-05-19) H I: doesn't disable mini-player button, the only thing i need from this extension
- (2022-03-21) 0636_Trần Nguyên Bảo Phúc: This really helps. It stops me from wasting time (and sometimes sanity) in the comment section. I never knew just watching videos and not scrolling endlessly through comments can be that refreshing, thank you Moonhythe.
- (2022-03-09) Milton Valler: Used it to see the Upload Date which YouTube decided they didn't want us, the viewer, to know. Works great.
- (2022-02-18) Stefani Mitova: Probably the best extension for YouTube. Really useful, customizable and user friendly. I strongly recommend it to all users!
- (2022-02-10) Teodor Dimitrov: Good

how to change language to russian on youtube? - (2022-02-20, v:1.1) Zyin: Permissions
Why do the permissions for this extension require "Read and change all your data on all websites" when it should be more limited in scope, such as "Read and change your data on all youtube.com sites" like other YouTube extensions use?
