A browser extension that hides the video and thumbnails on YouTube, YouTube Music and embedded YouTube videos in third-party sites. The extension used to block the video and play only the audio, but due to recent YouTube changes, it now only blocks videos on YouTube Music, while on YouTube, videos are just hidden.
