YouTube is built to keep you scrolling. Recommended videos stacked down the side, an endless comment feed, autoplay lining up the next rabbit hole before the current video even ends. When you came to watch one thing, all of it is noise.
This browser extension strips YouTube back to just the video.
Just the video, nothing else
Open any video and the page collapses to the one thing you actually wanted: the player. A small floating panel keeps your controls one click away, and it quietly tracks the hours you save by not falling into the sidebar.
The sidebar and comments are gone
The recommended sidebar and the comment section simply aren’t there anymore. No thumbnails baiting the next click, no comment threads pulling your eyes off the video. Only what you came to watch remains on the page.
Focused from start to finish
Nothing is left to pull your attention away. The video plays clean and centered, from start to finish, and when it ends you decide what happens next — not an autoplay queue.
