This browser extension is specifically designed for YouTube users, aiming to optimize the experience, fix inconveniences in the official design, and provide more customization features for advanced users. The project uses the MIT open-source license, with fully public and transparent source code that anyone can freely review, modify, or build upon.
We make the following commitments:
- No commercialization — absolutely no ads, paid features, or premium tiers;
- No trackers — no data collection, analytics, or background reporting of any kind;
- No access to personal information — all settings, caches, and preferences are stored locally in your browser;
- Full user control — every feature can be enabled or disabled at your discretion.
Our goal is simple: bring YouTube back to a pure video-watching experience instead of a playground for ads and algorithms.
You can view features of this extension on the extension store — or simply install it and experience them yourself!
