## Description

Remove YouTube™ Tab Number is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to hide the notification count that appears in parentheses on YouTube™ browser tabs. If you find the notification numbers distracting or prefer clean tab titles and bookmarks without notification counts, this extension dynamically removes those numbers from all new YouTube™ tabs after installation.

This user-friendly tool offers a straightforward solution since YouTube™ currently does not provide an official setting to disable notification numbers on tabs. It keeps your browsing experience neat and organized by ensuring all YouTube™ tabs look consistent, especially when multiple tabs are open. Ideal for users wanting a distraction-free interface while navigating YouTube™.
