  When adblox inevitably fixes this, you block comments, and a bunch of other crap, on purpose with Unhooked

    I love unhook so much. Using Youtube without recommended videos is a blessing. I only see what I wanna see, not a single thing the algorithm wants me to watch.

  I usually find the comments more useful than the video, sometimes more entertaining too.

    Then you really should watch better videos.

    uBlock Origin (I’m still seeing the comments, though).

      Are you still seeing the ads?

        No, ads are still blocked.
