    Install the ‘YouTube No Translation’ extension to get rid of it, it’s so incredibly annoying. Insane that Google still can’t fathom bilingual people existing 🙄

        true, I currently have about 5 or 6 extensions to keep that crap usable.

        Ublockorigin for ads, improve YouTube for misc enhancements (block shorts, delete button on playlists, codec options), hyperchat to optimize the slow chat on live streams, that no translation extension, sponsorblock to skip in-video ads and identify sponsored content. Theres also dearrow but I disable it for performance reasons.

        On mobile it not better, but Morphe fixes all of those quirks too.

        Just amazing how shitty a service can get, but shareholder value shall rise infinitely I guess

            Just looked it up, seems like Improve YouTube already does pretty much the same things as unhook (hiding unwanted sections, redirecting home to another page)
