    description
    SlopBlocker.ai: Intentional YouTube, Powered by Local AI.
    
    YouTube is the world’s greatest library, but it’s hidden behind an algorithm designed to waste your time. Most blockers are too blunt—they kill the useful tutorials along with the distractions. I built SlopBlocker to fix that.
    
    Using an AI model running locally in your browser, SlopBlocker analyzes content in real-time to separate high-value information from "slop."
    
    How it works
    The extension doesn't just look for keywords. It evaluates mean with intelligent AI algorithms.
    
    Informative Content stays: Documentaries, deep-dives, coding tutorials, and lectures are allowed.
    
    Passive Consumption is hidden: Low-effort reaction videos, infinite gaming loops, and drama channels are automatically blurred or removed.
    
    The Architecture
    Local Processing: Your data never leaves your machine. The AI inference happens entirely on-device for total privacy.
    
    No "Off" Switch: We’ve removed the tempting disable button. You make the choice to stay focused once; we make sure you stick to it.
    
    Hybrid Defense: SlopBlocker combines a high-performance blacklist of thousands of known unproductive channels with real-time AI classification for new content.
    
    Core Features
    Hard-Block Shorts: The infinite scroll ends here.
    
    Quick Snooze: 15 minutes a day for a break. That’s the limit.
    
    User-Defined Blacklists: Add specific channels or keywords that you personally find distracting.
    
    Stop scrolling. Start learning.
    
    ** Latest updates (3.5)**
    1. MAJOR update on AI algorithm, blocking should be much more accurate. 
    2. A refreshing redesign that should make everything more professional and clean. Animations and interactions are now more lively.
    3. YouTube's homepage is now completely removed, this makes removes the urge to just open the app and find something to watch. Now you have to intentionally search for what you want instead of consuming whatever shows up passively.
