About

TubeForge changes how youtube.com feels: fewer distractions, sharper playback controls, and optional power tools. No TubeForge account. Your choices are saved in the browser; TubeForge can use Chrome sync where you use synced storage. Immersive Lazy Mode UI may use local storage only.

Distraction and layout
Hide Shorts and use optional feed filters for live videos, premieres, mixes, and sponsored placements where the page matches TubeForge’s selectors. Dim watched thumbnails. Focus Mode hides the sidebar, comments, and related panels on watch pages.

Playback
Speed memory per channel when enabled. Theater mode when enabled. Auto quality hints through the player API when enabled. Loop A–B controls on the player bar when enabled.

Shorts
Lazy Mode for Shorts with options such as auto advance, ad handling, progress UI, and optional immersive layout.

Power tools
Stats overlay on the player when enabled. Screenshot button and keyboard shortcuts when enabled. Per‑video notes stored with your preferences.

Optional third‑party data
When Return dislikes is on, TubeForge requests vote counts from https://returnyoutubedislikeapi.com using the current watch page video ID. Turn the feature off to stop those requests.
