ZeroScroll: YouTube Distraction Filter

About

Full Description:

Stay focused on YouTube without going down the rabbit hole.
ZeroScroll gives you instant control over what YouTube shows you. With one click, you can hide the
entire home feed, Shorts, sidebar recommendations, and end-screen suggestions — leaving only the videos you actually came to watch.

Need a short break? Break Mode lets you set a timer (1–60 minutes). When time is up, ZeroScroll
automatically switches back to Focus Mode and re-locks your feed — no willpower required.


KEY FEATURES:

• Focus Mode — Instantly hides the home feed, Shorts shelf, sidebar recommendations, auto play
end-screen, and related video suggestions
• Break Mode — Timed access with a live countdown HUD on the page; auto-returns to Focus when
the timer expires
• Live Popup Countdown — See exactly how much break time is left directly in the extension popup
• Persistent State — Your mode is saved across browser restarts and tab navigations
• SPA-aware — Re-applies your mode on every YouTube page navigation, not just on load
• Zero tracking — No analytics, no remote servers, no data collection of any kind. All settings stay on
your device.

PERMISSIONS USED:
• storage — saves your mode setting and break timer locally on your device
• alarms — powers the break timer to auto-revert to Focus Mode
• tabs — reloads YouTube tabs when your mode changes
