YouTube can’t do this on its own.
A regular YouTube account has no block button. Here is what you get out of the box, and what FeedCut adds.
| What you want | YouTube on its own | With FeedCut |
|---|---|---|
| Stop seeing a channel on Home | Shown less“Don’t recommend channel” is a hint, not a block | Gone |
| Stop seeing it in search | NoIts videos still show up | GoneVideos and the channel itself |
| Stop seeing it in Up next and comments | No | Gone |
| Hide videos by word | No | YesIn titles and channel names |
| Turn Shorts off on a computer | NoThe Shorts feed limit is only in the phone app, and you can dismiss it | One switchOn from the first minute |
| Hide the Home feed or comments | No | One switch each |
| See what you blocked, undo one | NoOnly “clear all feedback” | YesA list with Unblock buttons |
| Lock settings with a PIN | No | Yes, free |
Everything that steals your evening, gone.
Each block works across the whole site, not just the page you’re on.
Channels
A Block button on every video
One press and the channel disappears from Home, search, Up next and comments. Its comments under other videos go too.
Block YouTube channels KeywordsHide videos by word
Add “prank”, “drama” or the show you haven’t watched yet. Videos with those words in the title or channel name vanish.
Block keywords ShortsShorts off, completely
The shelves, the Shorts tab and Shorts in search. A /shorts link opens in the normal player, so there is no endless swipe.
Hide YouTube Shorts FeedNo Home feed, no rabbit hole
Hide the Home feed, recommendations and comments. Come for one video, leave after one video.
Hide recommendationsPIN lock
Settings behind a code
A tired evening or a curious kid can’t undo your blocks without the PIN. Free for everyone.
Lists
Ready-made lists
“No politics”, “No pranks”, “For kids”. Turn one on in a click, then add or remove channels as you like.
Reliability
Built not to break when YouTube changes.
Most blockers hide boxes on the page. When YouTube moves the boxes, blocked videos slip back in. FeedCut removes them from the data YouTube sends, before the page is drawn, so they never show up — not even for a blink.
- Filters data, not layoutA redesign changes how YouTube looks, not what its data says. Blocks keep working.
- Tested every morningA robot opens YouTube each day — Home, search, a video, Shorts — and checks every kind of block.
- Fixed the same dayIf something breaks, the fix ships that day. Stores review updates, usually within 1–3 days.
- No remote codeEverything runs from the package the store reviewed, as Manifest V3 requires.
Set up in under a minute.
There is nothing to configure. Shorts are hidden from the moment you install.
Add FeedCut to your browser
From the Chrome Web Store, Edge Add-ons, Firefox Add-ons or Opera add-ons. No account, no sign-up.
Press Block on a channel
Hover any video on YouTube and press Block channel. Channel pages get the button too.
Add words or a list
Type a few words, or switch on a ready-made list. Change your mind? Unblock is one click.
Coming from BlockTube or Channel Blocker?
Bring your list with you: export it from the old extension, import it into FeedCut, and your channels and words are blocked again, now in comments and search too. See the BlockTube and Channel Blocker guides.

Questions
Is FeedCut free?
Yes. Every feature is free, with no limit on channels or words: Shorts, the Home feed, comments, spoiler mode, ready-made lists, the PIN lock, import and export. No account, no ads.
Will a channel know I blocked it?
No. FeedCut hides things on your screen only. Nothing is sent to YouTube or to the channel, and your Google account is not touched.
How is this different from “Don’t recommend channel”?
“Don’t recommend channel” is feedback: YouTube shows the channel less often on Home, but its videos still appear in search and elsewhere, and there is no list to undo one channel. FeedCut removes the channel from Home, search, Up next and comments, keeps a list, and unblocking takes one click.
Which browsers does it work in?
Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Opera on Windows, Mac, Linux and ChromeOS. Brave, Vivaldi and other Chromium browsers install it from the Chrome Web Store.
Does it work on my phone or TV?
No. FeedCut is a browser extension, so it works on youtube.com in a desktop browser. It does not change the YouTube apps for phones and TVs.
Can my kid just turn it off?
Not without the code: the PIN lock protects every setting and list. A browser always lets someone remove an extension, though, so think of FeedCut as a fence, not a safe.
Will it slow YouTube down?
No. FeedCut filters the data YouTube already sends to the page. It makes no extra requests and has no servers in the way.
Take YouTube back to what you came for
Block channels, words and Shorts everywhere on YouTube. Free, no account, nothing leaves your browser.
