About yt-neuter
yt-neuter is an open-source uBlock Origin filter list for blocking or hiding unwanted elements of the YouTube interface. The repository ships an aggressive main list, a less aggressive SponsorBlock sub-list that targets shopping, merch, paid comments, membership prompts, tickets, generic popups and brand features, and a separate noview list that hides force-pushed low-view videos. It also includes userscripts that change YouTube behaviour and appearance, and scriptlets for uBlock Origin to block or replace elements. Using it requires a filter-capable blocker such as uBlock Origin; filters are installed by subscribing to the filter URLs from GitHub or a serverless redirect.
