Sanitizes YouTube URLs by removing tracking parameters and cleans up distracting UI elements like Shorts and Comments. Ever tried sending a friend a 10-second YouTube clip, only to realize the URL is five miles long because YouTube slapped a whole surveillance kit onto the end of it? Yeah, we hate that too. YouTube Debloater automatically cleans tracking junk out of YouTube URLs and lets you hide the most distracting parts of the site so you can actually watch videos without getting sucked into a rabbit hole. --- WHAT IT DOES --- 1. Cleans Up Your Links Automatically • Strips tracker parameters: ?si=, &pp=, &feature=, ab_channel, and other junk tokens. • Shorts redirect: Automatically opens /shorts/ in the regular desktop video player. • Optional playlist unlinker: Strips list= and index= so videos play standalone. • Optional timestamp stripper: Removes t= if you want fresh links. 2. Hides YouTube Brainrot (Toggle whatever you want on/off) • Shorts shelves, reels, and sidebar icons • The entire comments section (protect your peace) • Recommended/related videos sidebar • End-screen cards (those boxes that block the last 10 seconds of a video) • Live chat panel 3. Manual Link Cleaner (Popup Sandbox) Got a messy link on your clipboard? Open the extension popup, paste it in, hit "Clean & Copy", and boom - pristine link ready to share. --- PRIVACY & PERFORMANCE --- • 100% on-device: Everything runs locally inside your browser. • Zero tracking, zero analytics, zero external servers. • Super lightweight: Pure CSS injection and tiny background service worker. Won't slow down your browser. --- OPEN SOURCE --- Open-sourced on Github: https://github.com/b00skit/YT-Debloat --- DISCLAIMER (pls no sue lol) --- YouTube is a trademark of Google LLC. This extension is an independent project made out of mild annoyance with URL bloat and has zero affiliation with Google or YouTube.
