Removes the number of notifications in parentheses that YouTube displays on tabs

Remove YouTube™ Tab Number
Description from store

Would you prefer not to have your number of YouTube™ notifications on every YouTube™ tab?

Do all of your YouTube™ tabs look the same when you have many tabs open?
Don't want the number included in your bookmarks or saved links?
Is it information that you don't need to be reminded about?

If so, this simple Chrome extension will dynamically remove the number (and the parentheses) from any new YouTube™ tabs that you open after installing it.

I'm finding it useful while there (currently) isn't an official setting to turn this number off. I've uploaded it here in case anyone else was also looking for the "off switch". Hope it helps.

Works great! Was gonna say it didn't work but it needed a minute after restarting chrome to take affect. Thanks for making a quality of life extension

oh wow please update this so it works whenever "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions" takes effect. This may sound weird, but this is the most important and useful extension I have! thank you for that

thanks! I really wanted to get rid of it, because I always have to manually delete the number when I save a bookmark.. much better now!

This extension is useless now since they removed the number tab on chrome and firefox. Can you make an extension that brings it back? Make it only for chrome and firefox

Works well but I would love a version for Twitter/Facebook and pretty much every site that has notification count in the tab!

This is the best thing ever. Solves an annoying problem that youtube created and could easily provide an option to disable. At least there are community members to do Google's job for them
