Helps block spammy or bot-like comments on YouTube by detecting certain patterns or phrases.

The YouTube Comment Bot Blocker is a handy browser extension crafted to enhance your YouTube experience by filtering out unwanted, bot-like comments and those from specific channels. With the rise of automated comments cluttering video discussions, this tool helps maintain the quality and relevance of user interactions on YouTube.
How It Works

This extension employs a combination of JavaScript functions and regular expressions to efficiently identify and hide comments that seem to be generated by bots or originate from certain unwanted channels. Here’s how it functions:

Comment Extraction: The tool extracts text from YouTube's comment elements while preserving the original text's casing, making it easier to detect patterns indicative of bot comments.

Pattern Recognition: By utilizing a set of defined patterns, the extension identifies comments containing phrases typically associated with bots, such as “real fans” or “who love.” It also checks for specific channel names related to gaming currencies, like “V-Bucks” or “Robux,” ensuring comments from these sources are promptly blocked.

Dynamic Monitoring: Leveraging a MutationObserver, the extension dynamically monitors new comments as they load, providing real-time filtering for an uninterrupted viewing experience. Whether you’re scrolling through a video or watching it live, the extension works silently in the background, continuously improving your comment feed.

User Benefits

Enhanced Comment Quality: By filtering out bot comments, users can engage more meaningfully with genuine feedback and discussions.

Personalized Experience: Although the extension doesn’t allow users to add their own blacklist, it effectively blocks the most common spammy channels, giving users a cleaner comment section and a more enjoyable viewing experience.
