ChannelFence, a Persistent YouTube Creator Block List

Field notes

ChannelFence maintains its block list in Chrome's local extension storage and applies it across named YouTube surfaces, including Home, search, Watch Next, Shorts, playlists, comments, and direct pages. Creators can be added from an inline control, a supported three-dot menu, or by pasting a handle or channel URL. The site also documents a setting that removes Shorts shelves and cards from feeds while leaving the Shorts tab and viewer available. Source is published on GitHub under the MIT License.
