Distraction-Free YouTube in Any Browser.

    Hi HN! Since Youtube no longer allows AdBlockers, I built my own extension to get around their video ads. If there is an ad it temporarily manipulates the video; Mutes the volume, sets speed to 10x, and skips it if there is a button.

    Hi HN! I built SkipCut it’s like an ad-free, distraction-free YouTube with useful extras: background play, SponsorBlock, dark mode, playlist support, local history, download/share buttons… and it works on any device. No install. No login. Here’s the best part: It works just by replacing "youtube" with "skipcut" in the video link. You skip all the boring stuff — ads, sponsors, intros, silence, filler and just watch what matters. Why it’s different: No comments. No suggested videos. No clickbait. I made this for my kid, I create a playlist and just send a SkipCut link like:…

    I built Yourabbit.com — a site that curates hand-picked YouTube rabbit holes grouped by themes like quirky psychology, obscure tech, weird facts, and binge-worthy oddities. It’s not driven by the YouTube algorithm — every collection is themed and curated manually (for now), with a backend I’m automating to fetch and organize new rabbit holes daily. Built as a hybrid Astro + Next.js project, optimized for static generation and speed. I’m also pairing videos with custom summaries and commentary (using AI), and would love feedback from the HN crowd on: Content model (too wide? not specific…

    I built FocusStream because I was tired of going to YouTube to learn one thing, then getting lost in recommendations and distractions. With FocusStream, just enter your topic and get only the relevant YouTube videos—no unrelated suggestions or autoplay. It’s free, minimal. Would love your feedback!

    NoSuggest is a quiet act of resistance against YouTube algorithms always trying to pull you into a loop of unlimited videos in turn into unlimited screen time. With unending side cards of videos, auto-play, what's next suggestions, YouTube shorts and notifications, users will be doom scrolling for many hours in a day. I faced the same problem. Acknowledging that, not all content in YouTube is bad. There are educational videos, genuine news contents without political bias which is very hard to find outside YouTube and many other good relaxing, entertainment stuff. NoSuggest lets you only…

    Hey HN! Me and my brother made an undetectable YouTube adblocker that doesn't get detected by Youtube (yet). Would love to hear what you guys think!

    Briefly, what the app does: 1. Points to a reverse playlist(an actual youtube playlist) for a channel. 2. Ability to skip to a position in playlist from beginning. 3. Request any new channel you would like to have a reverse playlist for ! Usage eg: - Using the above you can skip to say 100th video from begining in a channel (e.g CaseeyNeistat Vlog) and keep watching on youtube app (without going back to bingethetube.com). - Come back next day and resume watching from say video 120 without a lot of scrolling Useful if you like to follow a creators youtube journey or old Vlogs !

    I built Watchlist to solve a problem that's been nagging at me (and I suspect many others): YouTube's addictive nature and its impact on productivity. The Problem: YouTube is an incredible source of knowledge, but its homepage is an unending scroll of rabbit holes. The algorithm is designed to maximize watch time, often at the expense of our intentions and productivity. I found myself wasting hours, jumping from video to video, and then blaming myself for the lack of self-control. The Solution: Watchlist! Watchlist is essentially YouTube playlists on steroids. Here's how it works: 1. Create…
