The 'YouTube Recommendation Blocker' is a user-friendly Chrome extension designed to block YouTube's video recommendations and comments. Instead of completely removing the content, it hides it, ensuring the website's functionality remains unaffected. With a singular focus on YouTube, it requests permissions only for this site and functions without background scripts. Its open-source nature invites the community to contribute, enhance and troubleshoot issues collectively.
