Simple extension to hide the videos with certain keywords in its "Title"
How to host the extension 1.Go to your extensions tab in my case edge://extensions/ 2.Turn on the developer mode . 3.Click "Load Unpacked" and select your extension folder.
BOOM YOUR'RE DONE
🎯 What Does This Extension Do?
Lets you add keywords (e.g., "Programming tutorials" , "Pointers" , "Irfans-View").
Hides videos with those keywords in the title.
Saves your keyword list using Chrome Storage (so it's there even after a restart).
Allows you to clear the list whenever you want
- HTML for Input – We use a simple HTML page where users can type in the keywords which we want to get out from our sight.
2.Chrome Storage – We store these forbidden words in Chrome's storage so they don’t vanish when you close the browser.
3.Since YouTube dynamically loads videos as you scroll, we run our script every 5 seconds to keep things clean.
Since being a former lazy guy I have kept the code in the most minimalistic form and there is only clear all button to clear the entire list if you want to clear any specific key word .
Go to DevTools (F12) -> Applications ->Extension storage -> search for "YouTube Video Blocker" which is the present in manifest.json file
->Sync -> Edit the list.
