Remove distracting UI from popular websites using CSS and light DOM tweaks—no accounts or backend. Focus Cleaner helps you stay on task by hiding noisy interface chrome on the sites you use every day. Open the toolbar popup, flip the switches that matter on the page you’re on, and the extension applies cleanup right away—usually without reloading. Everything runs in your browser: no account, no backend, and no bundled libraries. What you can tune Focus Cleaner detects the current website and shows site-specific options when it recognizes the domain: YouTube — Trim clutter around watching and browsing: optional hiding for Shorts, comments, the recommendations sidebar, the homepage feed, and end-screen suggestions after a video ends. Reddit — Dial down distractions such as promoted posts, the sidebar, and recommended communities. There’s also an optional auto-expand behavior that gently expands truncated post content when Reddit hides long bodies behind controls (uses light clicks on expand UI; normal hiding stays CSS-based). Twitter / X — Quiet the sidebar-heavy experience with toggles for trends, who to follow, promoted posts, and the full right sidebar when you want maximum calm. LinkedIn — Focus options include hiding the feed, promoted posts, the news sidebar, and suggested follows—useful when you want LinkedIn open without the endless scroll. Any other website — A generic profile hides common irritants across the wider web: sticky headers, newsletter signup boxes, floating chat widgets, and simple overlays/modals (kept conservative so legitimate dialogs aren’t targeted aggressively). How it works (transparent & local) Rules are applied by injecting CSS into the page so matching panels and widgets stay hidden—even when sites load content dynamically. A MutationObserver reapplies logic as the DOM updates (single-page apps, infinite feeds). Your choices are saved under chrome.storage.sync, so preferences can stay in sync across Chrome when you’re signed into Chrome sync. Privacy & control Focus Cleaner does not send your browsing data to our servers—there aren’t any. Configuration stays on your device / in Chrome’s sync storage. You’re always one click away from turning options off or resetting settings for the current site. If you want a calmer YouTube, Reddit, X, LinkedIn, or a cleaner generic reading experience, Focus Cleaner keeps the noise optional—and you decide what counts as noise.
