YTLock

Block YouTube channels from your feeds, search, and recommendations.

Take back control of your YouTube experience. YTLock lets you block any YouTube channel with a single click. Blocked channels disappear completely from your home feed, search results, recommendations, sidebar, and Shorts. No more content from creators you don't want to see. **How it works** - Right-click any channel link on YouTube → "Block this channel" - Or type a @handle, channel name, or URL in the popup - Blocked content is instantly removed from every page **Features** - Block channels everywhere: home, search, trending, subscriptions, sidebar, and recommendations - Block all Shorts globally with one toggle — hide every Short from every channel - Disable live chat on all videos — reclaims the sidebar space too - Auto-skip videos from blocked channels when autoplay is on - Full blocklist manager in a dedicated dashboard - Import & export your blocklist as JSON — back up or share across devices - Works instantly — no page reload needed - Syncs across your Chrome browsers via Chrome Sync **Privacy first** YTLock does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Everything stays locally on your device. No analytics, no tracking, no servers. Zero network requests. **Open source** https://github.com/bearenbey/ytlock
