Reframe for YouTube Autor: Digital Feng Shui

YouTube's recommendations are curated for you, not by you. The algorithm behind them is engineered to keep you watching the next video, not the one you came for.

Reframe makes you the curator. Remove what you don't want to see, like Shorts and the recommendations, and keep the YouTube you came for: search, your subscriptions and the video you opened. Every part has its own switch.

What you can hide
- The home feed, or go straight to your subscriptions
- Recommendations next to a video, and the wall of videos at the end
- Comments and live chat
- Shorts, everywhere they show up
- Explore in the side menu, the notification bell and the suggestion shelves in search

With recommendations hidden, the video sits in the middle of the page instead of against the left edge.

Optional
- Real frames instead of thumbnails: a still from the middle of the video, not the designed clickbait image
- Calm ALL-CAPS titles
- Gray or blurred thumbnails (the blur lifts when you point at a video)
- Gray everything

Shortcuts: Alt+Shift+Y opens the menu, Alt+Shift+X turns everything on or off.

No account, no tracking. Your switches are saved in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.
