 \n  Channel ID looks like this: UCXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  \n  To get it, simply browse to a channel page and look at the URL `/channel/UCXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX`  \n  If the URL is `/user/BadChannelExample` use [This site](https://vabs.github.io/youtube-channel-name-converter/) to convert the username to the channel ID\n\n* How to block comments from specific user?  \n  Blocked channels comments are removed as well, so just add the user's name/channel ID\n  to your filters\n\n* What is the behaviour when browsing blocked channel?  \n  User will be redirected to YouTube homepage.\n\n* What is the behaviour when browsing blocked video?  \n  You can choose between two options:\n  - Block the entire page and leave a custom message\n  - Auto redirect user to the next video\n\n* How can I ensure this extension cannot be bypassed?   \n  TODO\n\n## Development \u0026 Build\n\n*Ubuntu*\n```\n# Install build requirements\nsudo apt install nodejs npm\nsudo npm install -g terser\n\n# Clone Repo\ngit clone https://github.com/amitbl/blocktube\n\n### Make your changes ###\n\n# Build package\n./tools/build.sh firefox\n./tools/build.sh chrome\n\n# Output packages locations\n./dist/firefox/blocktube_firefox_VERSION.zip\n./dist/chrome/blocktube_chrome_VERSION.zip\n\n# Temporary installation / debugging\nFirefox: https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/temporary-installation-in-firefox/\nChrome: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/getstarted/development-basics/#load-unpacked\n```\n\n## Future work\n\n* User-friendly options UI\n* Sync options to cloud provider / enterprise policies\n* Whitelist mode\n* Dynamic rules (match multiple rules to block a video)\n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the GPLv3 License - see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details\n\n## Acknowledgments\n\n* Extension Icon from: http://www.designbolts.com/2013/09/08/40-free-shaded-social-media-icons/\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Famitbl%2Fblocktube","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Famitbl%2Fblocktube","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Famitbl%2Fblocktube/lists"}
