YouTube Subscriptions Fixer

A small Chrome/Brave extension for reducing YouTube subscription-page clutter while keeping the normal Home view intact.

Features

• Hides Shorts shelves, sidebar entries, and Shorts video tiles
• Removes inserted subscription sections like Newest and Most relevant
• Displays subscription videos in a four-column grid
• Optionally dims watched videos
• Stores settings with Chrome sync storage

Install locally

1. Open chrome://extensions in Chrome or brave://extensions in Brave.
2. Enable Developer mode.
3. Choose Load unpacked.
4. Select this project folder.

The extension popup lets you toggle each behavior on or off.

Development

The extension logic is written in TypeScript under src/. The compiled JavaScript files stay at the project root because manifest.json loads them directly.

npm install
npm run build
npm run check
npm run package

After rebuilding, reload the unpacked extension from the browser extensions page.

Chrome Web Store

Run npm run package to create dist/youtube-subscriptions-fixer-0.1.0.zip for upload. Store listing copy is drafted in STORE_LISTING.md, and privacy policy text is drafted in PRIVACY.md.

Dashboard image assets are in store-assets/:

• small-promo.png for the required small promotional tile
• screenshot-popup.png for an initial listing screenshot
