- by Firefox user 16490674, a year agoRated 4 out of 5Hey, love your extension man. Seriously, its really insane, is essential and should be one of the top. I didnt know if u still updates but i have a bug that i cant hide the notification bell and the subscription bar. Dont know if is just with me.
(Sorry for bad english, i hope u could understand) - by BlueSkyGamin, a year agoRated 4 out of 5I love this extension! I have a bad habit of just letting the algorithm take me to the next video rather than getting off when I need to. I HIGHLY recommend this for TEACHERS because this will help keep students focused on the video.
My only gripe with this extension is that one time I removed it from my extension bar and was never able to get it back so I had to turn it off and on by turning off and on the whole extension in the add-ons menu. - by Vijay V, a year agoRated 4 out of 5

- by Firefox user 13972940, 2 years agoRated 4 out of 5I actually love the extension, but my avast just checked it as virus (it seems to have disabled my firewall). Hope its a false positive, but ive warned mozilla anyway. I'll change the bad review if they warn me its fixed *edit: ive warned avast as well, raised the stars here because i have reasons to probably dont be affected

posted 2 years agoSorry you had that experience. I have no idea what the explanation is but this extension certainly is not able to disable firewalls, nor does it have any malicious intent. - by alan edmonds, 3 years agoRated 4 out of 5Really nice add-on, but the firefox version doesn't work correctly on my work computer anymore. The youtube homepage shows all the thumbnails.

- by PLAYLUXE, 3 years agoRated 4 out of 5Addon works fine and does a great job at what it's supposed to do: disabling the videos on the news feed.
What I'd like so suggest is that you should be able to customize the news feed instead of just showing a blank page. This way you won't get confused why your videos are not shown anymore in case you forgot that you've installed the plugin.
Similar to the "Facebook News Feed Eradicator" plugin I'd recommend to insert some inspiring quotes as a placeholder. - by Andrew Eisenberg, 3 years agoRated 4 out of 5This is a great add-on and makes things safer for using youtube with kids. I've only been using it for a short time, but it seems to work great and I've been looking for something like this for a while.
Only question I have is that this add on requires "Access your data for www.nosarembo.com". That site doesn't seem to exist. What is it doing in the permissions list?
Oh...and the contact option in the settings pane is broken, so I can't send feedback.
Giving this add-on 4 stars only because of the broken contact button and the nosarembo issue. - by itismartin, 3 years agoRated 4 out of 5Absolutely love it! But you know what else would make it better? The ability to see ratings or like/dislike a video. Also the watch later tab etc. Oh and all-caps titles hidden should be a thing too!
- by Firefox user 14219795, 4 years agoRated 4 out of 5This add-on is fantastic with the exception of one important bug. On Firefox version 61.0.2 hiding the side bar also removes the skip add button so you have to either disable the DF add-on or watch the entire add.

posted 4 years agoThanks for pointing this out! I have fixed this issue in the latest version. I also highly recommend the uBlock Origin add-on, which blocks ads across the web and makes YouTube video ads a thing of the past!
