## Description

Filtering videos is useful for people that don't want to see/watch videos under 1-5 minutes, this gets rid of them, via css. It takes the video's length and hides it. Works well both if you want to barely see it, or hide it completely. Makes videos under the threshold not clickable, but you can always disable the extension.

Stores data on browser local storage (cache, to remember settings). Does not send any data anywhere.
