About

This extension is a super light weight YouTube recommendations and comments blocker. 

Stability not guaranteed! 

Video recommendations on the front page and on the side of the player will be hidden, as well as the comments section.

It hides the content rather than outright removing it, ensuring that nothing breaks in the site's internal workings.

The extension will only request permissions for YouTube, and has no background scripts.
