Have you ever gone to watch a short informational or educational YouTube video, only to find out that two hours have passed, and you are still watching many other related videos? If that’s your case, then you are not alone. We all get trapped into this process of mindless watching many YouTube videos without any prior intention. Luckily, there is a really beneficial Chrome extension, called DF YouTube. It hides recommended videos on YouTube and gives you the opportunity to only focus on the video that you are currently watching.
DF YouTube puts the video in the center, and hides the list of recommended videos from the right side, and also from the homepage, allowing you to not open new tabs with recommended videos before you are done watching the video at hand.
This may seem as something that may not be suitable to everybody, but I believe, it is something that can really save you a lot of time. It can also save up a lot of your willpower, as you do not have the urge to watch recommended videos, because you cannot see them. This way, you are not using your willpower to resist these types of temptations.
In the beginning, this new YouTube layout that is customized by this Chrome extension may be looked a bit weird, and not something that you are used to see on a regular basis. Give yourself some time to get used to it, and you may probably notice a decrease in the amount of time that you waste on YouTube.
I believe this is an extension that deserves a try. Click here to learn more about it.
