You can also use your adblocker (e.g. ublock origin) and specify a custom rule to remove the comments.

That's what I do to remove the YouTube front page.

3 comments

I did the same to remove youtube comments, they are incredibly rarely interesting and I hate the bile catching my eye even accidently.
Do you remove the whole frontpage?

I mostly use it to remove unwanted sections, like the "posts by youtubers" thing. No I am not interested in what you ate for breakfast, or if you think your video did worse than usual.

I just remove the unwanted parts because there are some interesting stuff on the front page such as settings, account, saved videos, subscriptions...
I cut off some fat from YouTube with Stylus, but I guess an ad blocker might work too (and maybe even prevent some requests from being made).
