YouTube Comments+

Removes comments with a single plus ('+') from YouTube comment threads.

YouTube Comments+ is an innovative Chrome extension designed to enhance your YouTube viewing by removing comments containing a single plus ('+') symbol. Inspired by the Vlogbrothers' suggestion to highlight notable comments via plus signs, this tool tackles the clutter caused by numerous '+' comments that flood threads and hinder meaningful conversations.

Currently in its alpha stage, YouTube Comments+ has been fully rewritten for improved clarity and faster bug fixes, featuring a fresh logo and an open-source codebase available on GitHub. By filtering out these '+' comments, the extension ensures a cleaner comment section that surfaces quality discussions, making it easier to engage with relevant content without the noise. User feedback and contributions are welcomed to help refine and enhance this promising tool.

Seems to have stopped working for me. Possibly incompatible with YouTube's recent update?

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

YouTube Comments+ requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Request access to the following domains: {{requestedDomains}}
  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
  • Medium ******* ******* ************* ***** *** ** ******* *** **** ******* ****** ******** *******
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

YouTube Comments+ has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
