- Rated 2 out of 5by Turulvér, 2 months agoOn page "Home" of Youtube the blocking options are lacking if not sign in. As I remember they existed even if not signed in. And also blocked videos and channels reappear again there. Please fix.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Swiss, 2 months agoWhen attempting to watch a video on a channel you've blocked previously, instead of saying the video is blocked, you're met with a blank screen and the video is blacked out. Leaving you wondering why youtube isn't working. Meanwhile, on chrome, it shows that the video/channel is blocked.
This needs to be fixed, you wasted a lot of my time. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18707147, 3 months agoThe extension still works and can still block videos and channels, but you now have to do it manually since the "Block Video" and "Block Channel" buttons no longer do anything.
Hopefully the developer will fix it soon.
Edit: It's not working again. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18692476, 4 months agoplease developer please fix this problem blocktube isn't working even I click on block channel it and it's videos again appear on search and homescreen please fix it as soon as possible
- Rated 2 out of 5by Taravilyaion, 4 months ago"Click on "Not interested / Don't recommend channel" when blocking using context menus"
Please split up the "Not interested" and the "Don't recommend channel".
Those things are 2 complete different things.
Favorite channels you're subscribed to can have uninteresting video's too. - Rated 2 out of 5by Mayamis, 5 months agoit was amazing but it stopped working :( will give better score again if fixed
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13302641, 5 months agoA strange bug: after one day of working, YT suddenly recognizes it as an unwanted adblocker and disables playback, you have to remove cookies both from google.* and youtube.com. Also, the Block video option from the 3-dot menu seems to not hide a video.
- Rated 2 out of 5by penguiins123, 5 months agoWas a very good extension but it stopped working a few days ago.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Amethyst, 5 months agoThis used to be an essential add-on, but starting several months ago context menu blocking broke for comments. And now context menu blocking is fully broken for videos and channels too. I can still block the channels by manually adding them by name or ID (which is a pain to find/extract), but this is an unacceptably slow process. I really hope the dev finds the time to fix it.
- Rated 2 out of 5by WilberWisdom, 8 months agoDoes not block channels anymore. Currently when you click to block a channel, it does add the channel to Channel ID list, but the channel and its videos still show up on YouTube.
- Rated 2 out of 5by DatrixTHLK, a year agoI don't usually write reviews or anything for Firefox extensions, but I feel I must for this one. As far as Channel blocking I can only do that if I'm on a video of that users page not on the users page itself. I am only given an option to report users NOT block them like I was able to do in a previous version. Typing in words in a blacklist does NOT block the users who use said words within the blacklist I created. I'm already able to block YouTube Shorts and Movies since I just checked marked those in the options and generated playlists and it does remove the video paused function from interfering with me watching or listening to the videos.
It would be nice to be able to block comments on videos again just by clicking on the 3 dots next to the comment.
BlockTube's UI and functionality within it's extension doesn't work when I manually type in names of channels to block as it doesn't work for me. As of right now I can only give it 2 stars as it really is a necessity to block channels and comments as most comments are just recycled comments from other videos and meme comments and AI chat bots. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14365568, a year agoIt doesn't work fine, the blockchannel in the comments option doesn't do anything.
So you can no longer block comments. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13868133, a year agoAs of today, Feb 29, 2024, blocktube no longer works on Firefox. Clicking on block channel or block video does nothing on Youtube.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14461240, a year agoРаньше работал исправно, но с недавнего времени перестала работать блокировка каналов и видео через контекстное меню. Всё еще можно заполнять черные списки вручную, но это же жутко неудобно.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18300218, a year agoAlmost worthless now, it has remembered which channels I've blocked previously but now I cannot block videos or channels at all.
- Rated 2 out of 5by kvba5, a year agoThis addon is very useful to block unwanted content and channels that gets you irritated. My experience with this addon was flawless. Sadly, somehow now it triggers YouTube's anti-adblock systems which makes this addon unusable for me. Tried to turn off any possible other addon which might have cause this but after disabling this one - YouTube stopped blocking the video. I hope this will get fixed soon.
- Rated 2 out of 5by IWD1, 2 years ago正しく動作しない。
非表示用文字列が効かない。
Not work block text from long year.
ブロック用の文字入力をするとき、最初の2文字入力したものが見えない、ページ再読み込み後見える。
When inputting characters for a block list, two head characters are not visible, and are visible after reloading the page.

設定の名前がぜんぶ英語ですから、私は理解することができません。私は操作を理解できない状態で使いました。すみません。
All the names of the settings are in English, so I can not understand them. I used it without understanding the operation. Please forgive me. - Rated 2 out of 5by Nico, 5 years agoI gotta be real honest, this app is a godsend. Especially when it comes to people happily leaking videos online and/or spoiling a game as it comes out.
Get this, please.
Edit: Due to some strangeness, My entire blocklist got wiped. This has happened multiple times. And as the developers seem to be content on ignoring the GitHub.
Until the developers start actually giving a shit, I'm bumping my rating down. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14627925, 5 years agoChannelBlocker以上に役に立たない。全くブロックされない(ブロックさせてもまたすぐに表示される)
- Rated 2 out of 5by Gamerappa, 6 years agoBlockTube now avoids YouTube from loading...
Also there is no way to blacklist playlists such as the "Illegal Memes" playlist.
I guess my recommended feed will be polluted with Tik Tok and Gacha Life.
