Не працює зовсім
by Volodymyr Bevz, 2025-03-05

На пк все чудово блокує, а в мобільному браузері "Kiwi Browser" (з підтримкою розширень), встановлюється але працює лише з увімкненням режиму "Версія для комп'ютера", хотілось би, щоб і в мобільній версії Ютуб теж працювало...

Дуже дякую розробникам. Чудовий плагін, рекомендую усим кому набридла ця бридка російська язика. Нажаль плагін працює тільки з ютубом, а хотілося б всюди заблоковати ту гидоту.
