I don't believe the adblocker works and I think the sunset setting makes the text unreadable.

Out of all the Youtube ad blockers out there, THIS ONE does it PERFECTLY! Been using it for at least half a year now, almost forgot Youtube comes with ads at all! The filtering system I only use to try and remove all Youtube Mix playlists, does it's job well enough, but I guess since they're Mixes and not single videos it doesn't always block it. At least my feed isn't spammed with them anymore. For videos (non-mix) the filtering works perfectly tho. Honestly I got it for the ad blocker alone and it is SO WORTH IT! The thumbnail blurring and video title editor/autocorrect is flawless too. Next update suggestion: option to remove "are you still watching" perhaps? ;) Love it!

Honestly, this is great. To get free donation features it asks you to share this on some other websites, min. 2, and i am going to share it on all of them, because it works flawlessly. Great job Marc!

This extension is REALLY good and I REALLY REALLY like this extension. it has almost everything you want. it even feels like YouTube got updated. the only reason I give this 4 stars is because anytime I turn on "block all ads" , anytime I watch a video, at one point, the video will say "sorry. an error has occurred." I even restarted the site, HECK even uninstalled and reinstalled it and no matter what I do, it keeps saying the same thing whenever I turn it on. I hope the creator fixes this.

So far I haven't actually had a chance to use the app but it seems to have a lot of very useful parts to it as well as the developer working on even more, which I like. He seems very enthusiastic about the project, which is always good. So far, you can blur out thumbnails that you don't want to see or block pages you don't want shown, something you would expect YouTube to already allow that is doesn't easily do, and for that, I give you a 4! LOL.
