Add option to hide all YT Streams from my Subscription/Home page

Open tankorsmash opened this issue 9 months ago • 3 comments

I appreciate this extension quite a bit, so thank you for making it!

PROBLEM:

I use https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions as a bookmark, and some channels go Live and show up first in the list. I'd like to hide all YT Streams from my Subscription/Home page

SOLUTION:

A checkbox toggle to hide all Livestreams from the Subscriptions page, whether it's for one particular channel, or all channels.

ALTERNATIVES:

RELEVANCE / SCOPE:

I'd say I dunno, 20% of people on Youtube don't watch streams, but I have no idea.

"SIDE EFFECTS":

I don't think people would mind seeing the simple checkbox.

CONTEXT: // Thank you!

SHORT Table (Summary)
Problem "1200 Watching LIVE" is distracting
Solution Adding option to hide all livestreams

Context Only the subscription and home pages

Hi @tankorsmash, I'd like to work on this feature request to add an option to hide all YouTube livestreams from the Subscriptions/Home page. I'll start by adding a checkbox toggle to hide all livestreams, both for specific channels and all channels. If you have any specific requirements or suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks!

@Saransh1524 there are two types of Live Stream videos: current (Live/On-air) and finished (records). It will be great to hide them all.

Hi @Saransh1524, I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to check if you're still working on this issue. If not, would it be possible for @Yoti to assign it to me? Thanks!

Hi, @IGIRANEZAJosue apologies for the delay. I was caught up with some personal work. You can take this up.

For now I'm using this AdBlock rule to hide live streams:

www.youtube.com##:is(ytd-rich-item-renderer,ytd-grid-video-renderer,ytd-compact-video-renderer,ytd-item-section-renderer):has(.badge-style-type-live-now-alternate)

And I'm using this userscript to hide stream records: https://greasyfork.org/ru/scripts/540383-%D1%81%D0%BA%D1%80%D1%8B%D1%82%D1%8C-%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%BF%D0%B8%D1%81%D0%B8-%D1%82%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BB%D1%8F%D1%86%D0%B8%D0%B9-%D0%BD%D0%B0-youtube/code (This one is for Russian language because it has different labels on different languages)
