What it hides

The videos you never meant to click

AI-generated videos

Videos YouTube labels as altered or synthetic are hidden straight away, with no daily limit. Unlabelled AI filler - stock footage, synthetic voice, generic script - is scored.

  • Altered or synthetic content label
  • AI-voiced slideshow channels
  • Generated "facts" videos

Clickbait and ragebait

Titles built to provoke rather than inform are scored for sensationalism and negativity.

  • "You won't BELIEVE..."
  • Drama and reaction bait
  • Manufactured outrage

Toxic comments (Pro)

Under each video, comments that are hostile or read like AI fold away with a reason.

  • Pile-ons and insults
  • Bot-style reply spam
  • One click to show any

Where it works

Everywhere YouTube recommends things

PureFeed filters the home feed, search results, the recommendations beside a video and channel video grids. Shorts that appear as cards in those lists are scored like any other video.

Unlike Not interested, which asks the recommender to change its mind, PureFeed is a rule in your browser. Anything over your limit is hidden on every page load, so the junk can't drift back.

A YouTube home page worth opening

Free on YouTube and six other sites. Nothing is deleted, nothing changes on your account, and every hidden video is one click away.

FAQ

Common questions

How do I stop seeing AI-generated videos on YouTube?
YouTube has no setting to hide AI videos. It labels some as altered or synthetic when creators disclose it. PureFeed hides labelled videos automatically and folds away clickbait and ragebait by score, on your home feed, search results and recommendations.
Does PureFeed hide YouTube Shorts?
It scores Shorts that appear as cards in your home feed and search results like any other video. It doesn't change the Shorts player itself.
Can it hide toxic YouTube comments?
Yes, with Pro. Comments under a video are scored for toxicity and AI writing, and the ones over your limit fold away with a reason.
Is this the same as clicking Not interested?
No. Not interested is a request to the recommender, which may drift back. PureFeed is a rule in your browser: anything over your limit is hidden every time, starting on the next page load.
Is it free on YouTube?
Yes. Videos YouTube labels as AI are hidden with no limit, and 500 posts a day are scored for clickbait, ragebait and AI slop across all sites. Pro removes the limit and adds comment filtering.
