- It hid some playlists for me in https://www.youtube.com/feed/playlists, probably the top video would have been hidden by settings or something. So I disabled it for now, otherwise good tool!

- This is a nice extension but people may report that you can't add items from a search to Watch Later. Everything looks normal until you go to your Watchlist and there's nothing added. The workaround is to change the sort in Watch Later and then change it back! The problem may be due to the "manual sort" which is the default on my machine (at least some of the time). I'd never seen that before as I've always used the "sort by latest" option. But when I clicked on Sort, it showed Manual, not Latest.

- Dev updated to get rid of the floating button, much better. Thank you. Works great. It works well enough and i quite liked it till recently, I hate the new logo that shows on the page though. Please get rid of this, its distracting and it even shows on my full screen videos! This is not cool, i don't need your plugin that I'm already using advertised to me on every page and on full screen videos. I will change the rating when that is removed. Otherwise i will look for another extension or script to do the job.

- I can no longer put up with the button in the bottom corner of the screen. The hide button doesnt work and it interferes with with the fullscreen button on the player

- This works on my https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions page but doesn't work when I go to a channel's page, I still see the videos that I have already watched on that channel.

- This extension is super helpful it hides watched videos, filters out low-view content, and removes Shorts. My homepage looks so much cleaner now. Easy to use and customizable also no data tracking. Highly recommended!

- The best extension for hiding watched videos. Other ones hide even videos with 5% on a progress bar. I've already thought about coding one myself =)

- Finally, a clean YouTube feed! Hides watched clips, filters out low-view trash, and nukes Shorts. My homepage is actually useful now.
