Does Youtube fill your homepage feed with videos you've already seen, and videos and channels that you don't like? Youtube provides ways to remove them if you are logged in, but it's 5 clicks deep which makes it impractical, and you're out of luck if you're logged out.

This script adds 1-click buttons on each video that let you quickly cull all that junk, improve the quality of your recommendations, and get back to a nice clean feed of new content that you actually like. And it works whether you are logged in or not!

Features:

  • remove an individual video from feed
  • remove an entire channel from feed
  • remember every blocked video and channel, so removals are permanent
  • removes videos even if you are not logged in to youtube
  • export all userscript data to CSV file

Additional features if logged in to youtube:

  • mark removed video as either "already watched" or "don't like", to improve youtube recommendation algorithm
  • mark removed channel as "don't recommend", to improve youtube recommendation algorithm
  • optionally auto-mark videos that show up on feed even though they were previously removed (for example, because they were removed while logged out, or somehow made it through the youtube recommendation algorithm)
  • removes videos even if you have watch history disabled

Features planned for future release:

  • auto-remove videos as watched when watching them
  • remove videos from related videos sidebar on video pages
  • replace removed videos with new ones instead of leaving empty space
  • style buttons to match Youtube UI
  • auto-remove videos that match keyword or pattern rules
  • auto-remove fundraisers and live videos

Known issues:

  • sometimes page stops scrolling briefly. This seems to occur particularly while logged out with a large number of blocked videos and "hidepopups" enabled, and is related to youtube failing to close the iron dropdown in some cases. The script includes a fail-safe for this case that should resolve it within a few seconds.
