TunnelVision — Focus for YouTube

About

Tunnelvision turns YouTube into a place you visit on purpose, not a place that keeps you scrolling.

It works as a set of focus "shields" you switch on:

• ONLY RELATED VIDEOS The recommendations sidebar is filtered down to videos related to whatever you're currently watching, and each one is scored by how well it matches. No more rabbit holes off the side of the screen. Use fast keyword matching (zero setup) or optional on-device AI ranking.

• NO SHORTS, ANYWHERE Shorts are removed across YouTube: shelves, the sidebar, and the nav. Shorts links open in the normal player instead.

• A CALMER HOMEPAGE The endless recommendation wall on the home page is replaced with quiet space, so opening YouTube doesn't immediately pull you in.

• WATCH LATER, ON TOP Your own Watch Later list is surfaced where the feed used to be. Intentional viewing instead of infinite scroll.

FOCUS THAT HOLDS Shields are meant to stay on. Pausing is always temporary and turns itself back on automatically. Turning a shield off for good takes a deliberate, friction-filled confirmation, so a moment of weakness doesn't undo your setup.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts, no analytics, no tracking, no servers. Everything runs locally in your browser. The optional AI mode talks only to a model on your own computer. Nothing ever leaves your machine.
