Add an option to properly hide videos which are superficially hidden in Subscriptions, either manually or automatically

insin opened this issue Β· comments

My Subscriptions page now has so many hidden videos it immediately loads a second page, so there are 125 videos on there by default:

08:25:03.900 πŸ™‹ handling https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions
08:25:03.900 πŸ™‹ observing subscriptions <ytd-rich-grid-renderer> style attribute (for --ytd-rich-grid-items-per-row changing)
08:25:03.900 πŸ™‹ observing subscriptions <ytd-rich-grid-renderer> rows (for new rows being added)

It would be nice to have an option to hide these properly using YouTube's built-in Hide functionality, so they get completely removed from Subscriptions. Perhaps we could add a control to Subscriptions similar to the "Remove watched videos" item playlists have:

Or just an option to automatically work through your hidden videos in the background while you're on the Subscriptions page. I don't know if there's rate limiting on the Hide functionality, hopefully slowly working our way through hidden videos in the background would avoid hitting that if there is one.
