Remove all distracting YouTube search suggestions, redirect shorts and much more!
This extension is designed to fix YouTube search and de-clutter your search page to make it less distracting.
FEATURES
1. Remove suggestions like "For you", "People also search for", "Searches related to", "Learn while you're at home", "Related to your search", "People also watched", "Other people are watching", "Recommended to you", "Latest YouTube posts" and more from your feed.
2. Remove Shorts from Search Results.
3. Remove Live Videos from Search Results.
4. Individual toggles for turning off different kinds of search results. Eg. Horizontal Cardlist, Shorts Panel, Auto-Generated YouTube Mixes and many more.
5. Option to permanently redirect "shorts" back to the normal video page.
6. Turn off playlists from appearing in search results.
7. Hide YouTube mixes and reels suggestions.
8. Filter out channel listings from results.
9. Spaced out collapsed sidebar on homepage with accent color to signify active tab.
10. Video Spotlight to highlight videos in the search page (optional).
11. Centered video title (optional).
12. Centered video description (optional).
13. An options page to turn off visual changes.
IS IT SAFE?
Absolutely. This is some barebones JavaScript to detect elements and some CSS to apply visual changes. There are no trackers phoning home or telemetry scripts working in the background in this extension. Not to mention no data is being sent or shared with any third party or the developer. It's completely open source so you can audit the code.
