    Add "Active" sidebar tab and soften selected sidebar styling

    Adds "all" and "active" tabs at the top of the sidebar. "Active" shows
    all currently-enabled options in one place; "all" explicitly resets to
    the default view. Also lightens the sidebar selected state from solid
    black to a subtle tint.

Date:   Sat Feb 21 17:30:29 2026 -0500

    Fix license cache not updating after checkout

    The checkout.session.completed webhook only sent a welcome email but
    did not update the subscription cache, so users kept getting cached
    free status after paying.

RYS — Remove YouTube Suggestions

A Browser Extension

What it does

A browser extension that lets you hide recommendations, customize the interface, and take control of your YouTube experience.

Feedback and Support

Leave a review!

Free to use with optional premium features.

Why I made it

The attention economy has gotten out of control. YouTube's recommendation algorithm optimizes for the most engaging videos, not the ones you actually want to watch — and it's easy to lose hours to the rabbit hole. This extension lets you cut the noise and use YouTube on your own terms.

Available for download at the links below:
