I do something similar with the built-in functionalities of uBlock/Adguard to hide the annoying bits of YouTube out of my sight. But I’m remarking that this shouldn’t be necessary when one’s already paying YouTube in hopes to get an unshittified experience.


Apologies—I’m actually saying the same thing, too, fudged my wording. Meant to say our shared dream for a barebones YouTube experience is worth a yearly subscription to me. No algorithmic engagement features, no HTML suppression, just a search bar and videos.
