Unrecommender

An extension that filters YouTube recommendations based on your subscriptions and the channel you're watching.

Installation

You can get the Unrecommender on Chrome by going here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/unrecommender/ojejjpodljdngfmhbjfoplkckcekflae/

You can also get it on Firefox by going here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/unrecommender/

"But what if I want to install it unpacked?"

You can install it as an unpacked extension by doing the following:

Chrome instructions:

  1. Go to https://github.com/memethyl/Unrecommender/releases
  2. Download and extract the latest ZIP
  3. Go to chrome://extensions
  4. Click "Load Unpacked..."
  5. Select the Unrecommender folder you just unzipped and hit "OK"
  6. Enjoy!

    Firefox instructions:

  7. Go to https://github.com/memethyl/Unrecommender/releases
  8. Download and extract the latest ZIP
  9. Go to about:debugging
  10. Click "Load Temporary Add-on..."
  11. Go into the Unrecommender folder you just unzipped, select manifest.json, and hit "OK"
  12. Enjoy! (NOTE: Temporary add-ons will DISAPPEAR when Firefox is closed)

Development

To help develop the Unrecommender, do the following:

  1. Open your git shell and type git clone https://github.com/memethyl/Unrecommender
  2. Download the latest jQuery version - http://jquery.com/download/ (you'll want the compressed, production version)
  3. Copy that into the "js" folder of your newly cloned repository
  4. Go to chrome://extensions/
  5. Click "Load Unpacked..."
  6. Select your repository folder and hit "OK"
  7. Start developing! Once you've finished doing what you wanted, make a pull request!

"What about other browsers?"

The extension doesn't use any browser-specific APIs (yet), so it should work on browsers other than Chrome and Firefox. I can't guarantee that, though, so if issues do arise, they (probably) aren't my fault. I'll look into it, though!
