Jacob Godspeed (ID: 000000fed2aee5ac) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 01/11/2022 Works as intended for the first day, but then it stopped. I've tried every variation from "/c/, /user/, to, /channel/". I've also tried finding the channel's original name or one of its alternative URLs. It would also be nice if this worked on playlists too.

Techno Aadvik Official (ID: 000000644d4163dd) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/12/2021 It works perfectly fine. Problem is that it has swears, my child reads them and may start using them

BigTree (ID: 000000c042e73137) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/25/2019 Good idea but very poor execution You cannot block youtube, you have to set minimum 3 videos a day (why!!!) But even bigger problem is when you close youtube tab and open again you can watch 3 videos again. You could do that all day. Pls give him one star as stupidity like this cannot be tolerated. He littler the Internet with that extension.
