Overview

Problem: YouTube keeps recommending videos you already watched, no matter how many times you click "Not interested" and choose "I've already watched the video".

Solution: "Stop YouTube Reruns" quietly removes videos you've already watched from the places where they keep showing up.

Pick how aggressive you want it to be with the watched-percentage slider, then choose where it runs:
- Home
- Subscriptions
- Video page recommendations
- Playlist pages
- Watch pages with an open playlist

The extension reads YouTube's own watched progress bar on each thumbnail and hides matching videos from the layout. That means less time telling YouTube "I've already watched this" and more time watching videos of cats meowing in a way that kinda sounds like they're saying "6 7".

No account setup, no subscription, no junk. This took me like 3 hours to build; I'm happy to share it with you for free.
