nothx

Overview

Remove unwanted web features — Shorts, Reels, AI answers, distracting sites.

nothx removes the parts of the web that steal your attention without touching the parts you actually use. WHAT IT BLOCKS YouTube - Shorts (feed, sidebar, search results, /shorts page) - Homepage recommendation feed - Related / autoplay sidebar - Comments - End screen suggestions - Trending page - Notification bell Instagram - Reels (nav link & /reels page) - Stories bar - "Suggested for you" posts - Home feed - Comments Google Search - AI Overview summaries - AI Mode tab - Short video results Site Blocker - Block any domain entirely. Just type the URL and it's gone. HOW IT WORKS Everything is toggled per-feature. Turn off only what bothers you. No accounts, no tracking, no data leaves your browser — all settings are stored locally via Chrome sync. PRO nothx Pro adds time-based scheduling: set active hours for each feature so blocking kicks in and off automatically. Useful for focus hours during the day while keeping the evening free. PERMISSIONS - storage: saves your settings - declarativeNetRequest: blocks sites at the network level - tabs: applies settings to already-open tabs when you change them - Host permissions for YouTube, Instagram, and Google: required to run the content filters on those pages. The broad host permission (https://*/*) is required only for the site blocker to work on any domain you choose to block.
