Rot-Stop

About

Rot-Stop helps you take back your attention on YouTube.

• Kill Shorts — strips Shorts shelves and tiles, and bounces you off /shorts/ URLs.
• Hide feed rot — scores every home/search tile and quietly hides clickbait and
  low-quality videos, with your trusted channels always allowed.
• Watch-page nudge (optional) — before you commit to a video, get an "are you sure?"
  prompt for videos that don't match the goals you set.
• Community channel ratings — an optional, shared reputation dataset helps rate
  channels; your own trust/block decisions always win. You can opt in to contribute
  anonymized channel verdicts to improve it — off by default.
• Channel block list — hard-block channels, import community lists, and let Rot-Stop
  auto-block repeat offenders.
• Stats — see how many Shorts and clickbait videos it's spared you.

Feed hiding and Kill Shorts work instantly with no account and no API key. Everything
is stored locally on your device. The optional AI nudge runs under your own Anthropic
API key — nothing is bundled.
