RecFix Extension

Fix Your YouTube Feed & Recommendations

What it does

RecFix 2.0 is the ultimate remote control for your YouTube algorithm. We've replaced our basic V1 filter with a brand new engine. New features include "Algorithm Personas" to instantly switch your feed's focus (Learning, Music, Chill), an "Anti-Clickbait" filter to clean up annoying ALL CAPS titles, and a "Doomscroll Breaker" to stop endless Shorts scrolling. Reclaim your focus without having to block YouTube completely!

    YouTube banned adblockers so I built an extension to skip their ads2023 · ▲713

    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.

    Control Panel for YouTube2024 · ▲111

    Hi HN, I recently released a new browser extension for YouTube, which in addition to the table stakes of hiding the existence of Shorts, hiding promoted content, automatically skipping ads, hiding useless/unused UI elements, hiding unwanted channels YouTube keeps recommending to you, letting you hide algorithmic suggestions etc. etc., makes other changes I've always wanted as a user, in the same vein as one of my other extensions, Control Panel for Twitter. The most significant of those is attempting to make your Subscriptions page more like an Inbox, by hiding videos you've already…

    I built a self hosted recommendation feed to escape Google's algorithm2022 · github.com · ▲214

    I created this chrome extension for myself where I track my own behavior locally and recommend myself content from platforms I want content from (youtube/twitter/quora/etc) in a feed. I made it public just in case anyone else was interested. I would rather have control over my own algorithm and own the data. Also, it gives me flexibility. Turns out I do like these feeds just not when I don't own it haha. Let me know what you think of my implementation?

    YouTube Shorts Redirector2024 · github.com · ▲55

    I am neurodivergent and noticed the Youtube Shorts format was hacking my brain to engage longer than I wanted. I wrote this quick extension to gain my time back. If you have suggestions for improvement, I'm all ears. Thank you :)
