- Ikram Ayyash
- this extension was good for people who don't want distracted while watching on YouTube, but the the problem is the extension doesn't work on search menu, i hope the dev fix this problem quickly
- Zachary Mankowitz
- So useful and simply works. Highly recommended
- Marco Ak
- Nice extension. If I can give a suggestion: the option to hide likes, also hide the thumb up and thumb down buttons. I would like to still have the like and dislike buttons, only hiding the like number.
- ArsonHound
- Really good, It takes the slop out of youtube, I wish there was an option to hide the AI features, though
- SHIBAN SAIFI
- I used many other extensions but this is the one I used for months.

- Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

- It blocks whatever I want to be blocked. Thank you!
- alii
- thank God, just Thank God this plugin exists. I'm so sick of those "suggested videos" from the right side of my videos, they are utterly obnoxious. I love this plugin. Sadly, there's no alternative for mobile (YouTube Vanced does hide comments, but not suggested videos which you know is kinda... bleh). Thank you bro.
- jyostna sathe

- Al sabith S
- awesome some needed to fix like disabling comment alone is not working and the shorts are opening even after turning off it not on the home page but on search feed thanks for this i never imagined this was possible
- Shain perez
- perfect
- Dawson English School
- I must have tried 5. This is the only one that worked to get rid of end cards.
- SM Tansen
- great app
- Anas Muhammed
- Great, but I gave it this rating because it hides the shorts, but I can search for them, and if I open them, I will hear a sound but no image.

- Dayana Arroyo
- works like a charm, great job.
- James
- The home button only removes content from the home page, but the button is still present in the sidebar. If you remove the button, everything will be better. "Hide Thumbnails" button only works on table mode, doesn't work on list mode. If you remove the thumbnails from the “Save to Playlist” box, the extension will be PERFECT!
- Le Richardson
- Goated, so easy to set up and blocks yt shorts super well. Legit took me like 10 sec to set up
- Ruben Gonzalez-Grima
- Boom, 5 stars! This had exactly what I needed. Since YouTube's new interface update, I could no longer block end cards. Found this extension and saw it was updated this October, and what do you know, end cards blocked. Thanks Clean YouTube, such a useful tool!
