FiniteScroller for YouTube Extension

A simple, lightweight Chrome extension that removes the infinite scrolling of the Youtube homepage, and replaces it with the former page system (rather than infinite content loading, you have to click \"next\").

I built this as I waste a lot of time scrolling down through the Youtube homepage - reverting back to pages ensures that I waste a lot less time each day.

If you have any issues, reach out to me at: [email protected]

Cheers!
