Installed this in hopes to hide all those clickbait, vine compilation and other terrible channels I have no interest in but it ends up blocking everything on the main page and in searches about 40% of the time which makes this addon unusable.

just freeze firefox (with no explanation)

I did find one bug that's been driving me nuts. Some videos don't display at all on youtube when the add-on is activated. For me it seems to be any video with a 4 in the title. The videos show up anywhere outside youtube (such as google search), but clicking on them causes Firefox to freak out and automatically go back a page.
This can be prevented by opening the video in a new tab, but you still can't see them while browsing youtube if it has a 4 in the title. This means videos like numbered Lets Plays that are numbered 39-50 or 399-500 are invisible. That's at maximum 100 videos you're missing out on.
I have to turn the add-on off every time this happens, then turn it back on again whenever youtube gives me garbage recommendations.

Since youtube is 80% full of shit this addon is quite good.

sadly the "rightclick on thumbnail to block" feature doesnt work since there is no button in the context menu

im using it on chrome aswell and simply export the list from chrome to firefox since the click on thumbnail button works there and makes for a much easier time blocking channels

but im sure the addon can do better and i hope for a fix

After the last update, it just doesn't work anymore.

It does do what it's intended to do. However, it isn't without problems.

The UI is rather clumsy, making you enter blocking criteria manually (recent update) and the default when you fire up the UI is "search" instead of "add." Seeing as you're more likely to add block criteria than search for them, this is strange.

It also has trouble blocking foreign characters and symbol characters. Even when you copy and paste, the blocking is hit and miss on a channel with those characters.

Since the update, it's been a huge resource hog, slowing down firefox quite frequently, and sometimes locking it up altogether. It shows a major security flaw in either the plug in or Firefox itself as a plug in should not have this much effect on Firefox.

Not work after latest update...

better let Lemonrice work on it.
meanwhile un-install this update, go to the link that he provides above and install 2.0.1 and make sure you set "look for updates" to OFF.
come back here in a few months to see how the updates are going.

this all happens because Mozilla tells developpers to use a new framework that is a pain in the ass.
so what is new in life, but do not take it out on Lemonrice, he will get it sorted, but it will take time.

so calm down and do not shout at him.

I loved this for so long. It was the answer to my prayers. I never had any of the "stopped working"-type problems others complain of, until...

The August 11 2016 update nuked my block list -- no big deal, I probably only had a dozen or two channels blocked and I can redo that that. But I'm also disappointed that the right-click (aka context menu?) feature has gone away. Not a big deal, still going to give five stars because this is still so much better than YouTUbe on its own and the creator is doing this for donations only, so yeah, 5 (pity) stars, like 4 stars overall, and only 1 star compared to the pre-Aug. 11 version.

What the hell has happened in the most recent automatic update ? I cannot right-click block no more ...


Thank you very much for the new update, Lemonrice. It works wonderfully again. You don't know what you've until you lose it :-)

Keep up the excellent work!

This add on was great. I experienced no bugs with it and it was simple to use, I see a channel I dislike on youtube and right click the video and simply blocked the whole channel. Now the list I have built up has been wiped and the aforementioned feature has been removed so now it is more time consuming to block channels. Please revert back to how the add-on used to function, this is terrible.

After update everything went to sh*t.
- Old dumps don't load because of new data structure
- Channels now have to be added manually
- Icon in address bar now useless and i have one more cancerous icon on the right, wasting my precious space.

+ I like new UI though. ( Doesn't change the fact that now add-on is useless )

After the last update i lost all my saved channels and keywords , this is a big loss , it took me almost a year to make my list , please do something , this is not how you gain trust of people , very bad

This addon went from a one right-click-left-click-and-forget on any channel link displayed on the web page to some "Go into the addon pannel through its icon somewhere in the browser and then type in the name of the channel you want and save it each time you want to blacklist a channel" thingy.

Why ? It was just so easy before, doing just what it was intended to, with convenience. Convenience, this is the key word. There are so, so many channels to blacklist on YouTube and we can say that most of us, if not all, just don't want to type in channels names into some setback sub-menu's box for each one.

Also this update brings its own blacklisting system onto the table, simply deleting what was already there, so we're left to start all over, blacklisting all the channels we already hid before.

Would have been a 5/5 since it was filling its task just right (with minor annoyances such as being unable to blacklist from some specific pages types like user profile I think), now it's just annoying. It can block channels, but having to go through such chores to do so on top of having the blacklist reset is a no-no.

after the new update my list was empty and the .csv Backups no longer worked.

I was happy with it until the recent updates (that deleted everything that i blocked and made other changes that i don't like) so i had to downgrade back to Version 2.0.1 and i am happy again.
