Hey everyone, I'm stoked to launch my first product - FocusTube! It's a free Chrome extension that lets you focus on YouTube by blurring thumbnails, titles, comments, and the end screen feed. You can choose which parts to blur/unblur. Simply toggle it off when you are done working and want to watch YouTube normally. You can use it to hide spoilers, blur distractions while working, or block YouTube thumbnails while teaching. I'd love to know what you think!

So needed! I would go even further. Create YouTube lite. Minimal UI. One video at the time. No comments. play stop and search. one can dream ✨

@sentry_co I'm considering taking it in that direction - strip out everything that isn't strictly necessary for YouTube to function. Combining this with a working ad blocker would work wonders. Thanks for the feedback, it is appreciated!

Congrats on the launch. I will tell you a story - A year ago I was teaching an 11th standard student some Physics when I asked them to check out the concept on YT, and saw them getting distracted from numerous notifications and stuff. Since then I wanted to build something that takes away the distraction while students study. Today I found this, this product seems like the 1st stepping stone to achieve that. Much needed, I can see the product growing with many other features that cater to the concept of removing the plethora of distractions we face today on a day-to-day basis. Best wishes : )

@cosmos that's exactly how I hoped it would be used! That's also similar to how I got the idea - my mother is a high school teacher, and she mentioned that this was a problem when showing YT videos to students. I wanted to build something that would help her and others like her. Thanks for the well-wishes and for sharing the story
