Is there no way to block certain youtube channels from ever polluting your feed? I think they removed the old block button that used to be in the Report flag

why are you looking in the youtube feed? just watch the thing you want to see, then close the window. if you cant think of anything to watch, thats also fine. you dont have to look for a thing. or just write "random vines"

In the youtube app in the … menu on each video is both “not interested” and “don’t recommend channel”. The website should have the same options but I didn’t check.

Lol this is exactly the reason I wanted a block function. What is wrong with Youtube, they won't add this feature for some reason.

This YouTube experiment has been running since July 31, 2023, but I just saw this: AI-generated video summaries.

By default I'm against AI-powered bullshit, but this would be great for those videos where a simple "Is this thing bad? Yes/No" question is stretched to +10min.



edit: :lol: Just like this video, 9 minutes talking about small details, and the last minute has the most relevant info.

Time to start investing in powerful magnets. Are Boston Dynamics free to sell their robots to anyone or are they owned by a bigger fish?

I gotta hand it to em, that’s an incredibly useful feature. I wonder if they’ll end up rolling it out though as the vast majority of the time I spend on YouTube is due to this not being available. I’ve cut down YouTube a lot since I realised the paucity of actual information compared to the fluff and filler and often I just try to infer what they’re saying in the vid from scanning the chapter headings to save time. gently caress YouTube in a lot of ways, this would go a long way to make it a less destructive habit

On desktop you could do that with custom filter rules in your choice of adblocking extension/addon.
On mobile I only know of android app called ReVanced, that allows you to modify the official YouTube app to add/remove features, including removing shorts: https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager or https://revanced.app/
(List of things you can do is here: https://revanced.app/patches?pkg=com.google.android.youtube)

Looking for an elegant (easy) solution for watching Youtube on TV while running DeArrow, SponsorBlock and a non-YouTube premium requiring adblock. It's become too painful to watch YouTube PS5 without SponsorBlock and also I want to stop giving Google money for premium as they're megabastards

If you have an android TV device like a newer Chromecast, Smart Tube Next Beta is amazing. It does Sponsorblock and blocks ads. I don't know about DeArrow. The sidebar is great as you can pin channels or specific playlists to it. And it can be set to never autoplay another video, and always turn off after X minutes of not touching the remote, so it's great for sleeping.

I had to do some developer mode shenanigans to install the apk on my Chromecast but it's worked great for a year now.
