About

Block YouTube Home removes the biggest distraction on YouTube — the recommendations feed on the homepage — without breaking the rest of the site.

The moment you open youtube.com, you're redirected to a page of your choice (your task list, calendar, a blank page — anything). Search, video pages, subscriptions and history all keep working normally.

FEATURES
• Redirect the YouTube homepage to any URL you set
• Default redirect to your Todoist Today view — change it in one click
• Lightweight: no tracking, no accounts, no data leaves your browser
• Your setting syncs across your Chrome browsers

HOW IT WORKS
1. Click the extension icon
2. Enter the URL you want to land on instead of the YouTube feed
3. Save — that's it

Your redirect URL is stored only in Chrome's sync storage and is never sent anywhere.
