About YouTube Queue Manager

YQM helps boost productivity and corrals time spend on YouTube. The main feature is disabling the queue functionality by removing the UI to add videos to the queue playlist. This encourages purposeful browsing and prevents aimless video video accumulation in queue from recommended, subscriptions, or trending videos which are huge time sinks. Upcoming features will allow for setting hard caps for items in queue and total watch time for said items.
