About CleanTube Distraction Free YouTube & Web

CleanTube completely rewrites the YouTube browser experience. We've built an all-in-one productivity suite that strips out the dopamine loops, enforces deep-work routines, and stops low-value doom scrolling dead in its tracks. 🛡️ UNIVERSAL AD & SPONSOR BLOCKER • Automatically mutes and fast-forwards all video ads. • Hides banner ads, promoted videos, and mid-roll interruptions. • Built-in SponsorBlock: Autonomously skips embedded creator sponsorships, intros, and self-promotion using a crowd-sourced network. 🚫 SHORTS & COMMENT HIDERS • CSS-based instant hiding engine removes Shorts from your homepage, sidebar, and search results with zero flicker. • One-click toggle to completely remove the YouTube comment section. 🔞 NSFW MATHEMATICAL FRICTION • Real-time search query interceptor. • Actively scanning for NSFW explicit content keywords. • Freezes the browser and obscures explicit videos behind a mathematical lock (e.g. demanding you to solve `12 * 7` to bypass). 🎙️ SMART NOTES & DICTATION • Take contextual, long-form video notes utilizing a built-in Speech-to-Text dictation engine. • Complete with NLP commands (speak "New Paragraph" to format natively). • Click "Read" in your dashboard to hear your notes spoken aloud using native Text-To-Speech APIs. 👍 RETURN YOUTUBE DISLIKE (RYD) • Instantly unmasks hidden dislike counts on all videos. • Patched to support the newest YouTube UI layouts. 📸 CREATOR UTILITIES & PiP • Capture pristine, high-resolution snapshots of the video player. • Force Auto-Picture-in-Picture: YouTube elegantly floats to the corner when you scroll or switch tabs, perfectly persisting through internal page navigations. 🎯 ZEN HOME & FOCUS MODE • Zen Home replaces your chaotic recommended feed with a clean, empty search-only interface. • Focus Mode blurs the sidebar and related videos while watching. 🔍 CLICKBAIT GUARDIAN (AI-HEURISTICS) • Detects clickbait structures and ALL-CAPS hyperbole. • Instantly blurs offending thumbnails; you can configure custom word/channel blacklists for complete erasure. ⏱️ DEEP WORK TIMER • Integrated Pomodoro-style sessions (15/30/60/90 minutes). • Ambient white-noise triggers automatically. 📊 100% OFFLINE ANALYTICS • Advanced charts breaking down daily usage tracking, peak hours, and video categorization. • 100% local operation: No data ever leaves your computer. No accounts required. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚡ Built natively for Manifest V3 🔒 Absolute Zero data collection 📱 Extremely lightweight execution ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
