  description

  CleanFeed gives you real control over what YouTube shows you.
  
  BLOCK CHANNELS PERMANENTLY
  YouTube's "Don't recommend" button is temporary. CleanFeed makes it permanent. Right-click any video's three-dot menu to block a channel forever — across homepage, search, sidebar, and Shorts.
  
  FILTER BY KEYWORD & TOPIC
  Block entire content categories (crypto, gambling, politics, gossip, gaming, and 20+ more) with a single toggle. Each category automatically blocks related terms — blocking "crypto" also hides "bitcoin", "ethereum", "blockchain", and more. Add your own custom keywords too.
  
  INTEREST BOUNDARIES
  When you search for something new, CleanFeed asks: "Just now, Today, or Always?" This keeps one-time curiosity searches from permanently polluting your feed.
  
  HIDE SHORTS
  Remove all Shorts sections from YouTube with one toggle. Clean, distraction-free browsing.
  
  SMART FEATURES
  - Per-synonym control: fine-tune which terms each category blocks
  - Subscription exceptions: auto-detect when blocked keywords affect your subscribed channels
  - Hidden video log: see exactly what was filtered and why
  - Multi-language support: English and Italian
  
  FREE & PRO
  Free: block unlimited channels, hide Shorts, 3 custom keywords, interest boundaries preview.
  Pro ($3.99/mo): unlimited keywords, full interest boundaries, smart decay, hidden video log, subscription exceptions.
  
  YOUR DATA STAYS LOCAL
  CleanFeed stores everything on your device. No analytics, no tracking, no data collection. Period.

  CleanFeed — Your YouTube feed, on your terms
  
  YouTube's algorithm is built to learn from everything you do.
  
  Every video you watch, every search you make, every channel you visit — it all feeds a system designed to keep you watching. Watch one gaming video: YouTube notes it. Watch three: it starts recommending gaming. Watch ten: your homepage becomes gaming.
  
  The algorithm learns fast. It forgets slowly.
  
  YouTube gives you a "Don't recommend this channel" button. But it resets. It's not permanent, and it only works channel by channel — not by topic, not by keyword, not across search results and Shorts at the same time.
  
  CleanFeed gives you the controls YouTube doesn't.
  
  INTEREST BOUNDARIES
  When you search for something, CleanFeed asks: "Just now, Today, or Always?" One-time curiosity stays one-time. The algorithm never learns from it.
  
  BLOCK CHANNELS PERMANENTLY
  Right-click any video → block that channel forever. Across homepage, search, sidebar, and Shorts. Permanent, not temporary.
  
  FILTER BY TOPIC & KEYWORD
  Block entire categories (crypto, politics, gaming, gossip, and 20+ more) with one toggle. Blocking "crypto" also hides "bitcoin", "ethereum", "blockchain" and related terms automatically.
  
  HIDE SHORTS
  Remove all Shorts sections from YouTube with one toggle.
  
  YOUR DATA STAYS LOCAL
  No analytics, no tracking, no data collection. Everything stays on your device. Period.
  
  FREE & PRO
  Free: unlimited channel blocks, hide Shorts, 3 custom keywords, interest boundaries preview.
  Pro ($3.99/mo): unlimited keywords, full interest boundaries, smart decay, hidden video log, subscription exceptions.
