Amazing! Really helps me fight with my procrastination. Love how you can choose what to display and what not to at any of youtube screens separately The only thing I recognized while using - it looks like three dots under the video are not working anymore - so I cant add any vids to my playlists.

Hey Benjamin!! What a great extension. I feel like you put all the necessary things in one: - unhook - Youtube-shorts block - Hide Youtube thumbnails May I suggest to also have the channel page, as when you go to one (https://www.youtube.com/@veritasium) you still see all those thumbnails :) Thanks again!
