YouTube Focus Mode Extension

This chrome extension allows you to select the type of videos that you want to see in your YouTube feed and blocks/hides all other videos that do not belong to the selected categories. Most of the extensions block the entire feed and hide all recommendations which might not be what you want while studying or focusing on learning a topic. By selectively blocking the distracting videos only, this extension allows you to focus on what's important and prevents you from getting distracted into the YouTube rabbithole.

The extension currently works in 3 scenarios within YouTube:
- Home Feed
- Search Results
- Video player and its accompanying recommendation column
