en Stops working recently when I open YouTube as a separate desktop shortcut window. Still works only when I open Chrome itself.

en Thank you for solving this problem. I just want to avoid the "feed" and youtube makes it incredibly difficult to do. This is a perfect workaround. Thanks!

i've turned off my youtube history to prevent myself fromdoom scrolling ever more content but was alwasy presented with a blank screen which was offputting as all i wanted to really view was my subscriptions. I downloaded a redirctor but repalcing youtube.com to youtube.com/feed/subscriptions didnt work and so foudn this plugin which works perfectly. thanks Dev!

This works great. Doesn't hang for a second or need to reload the page. However, it seems to not let you view the home page at all. Most of the audience for this extension might not care, but sometimes I do actually tend to pop over to the home page if I've seen everything I want for the day from my sub box, to possibly find some new creators or see what the algorithm has barfed up for me for the day. Is this a technical limitation or is it possible to allow this?
