Show HN: Weedout – Safari extension that hides YouTube AI-labeled videos
hackernews
Videos YouTube labels “Made with AI” — quietly pulled from your feed, search, related videos and Shorts before you scroll past them. No blocking screens, no drama. The weeds are just gone.

FIELD CAM
Simulated. On a real feed a weed is gone in about half a second — cached ones never sprout at all.
WHAT IT DOES
- Filters AI-labeled videos out of home, search, related, playlists and Shorts shelves
- Auto-skips AI-labeled Shorts in the Shorts player (optional)
- Dim mode wilts weeds in place instead of removing them, so you can verify before you trust it
- No accounts, no tracking, no data collection — everything runs on your Mac
Detection relies on YouTube’s own “Made with AI” disclosure badge — no guessing, no heuristics, no false accusations. Unlabeled slop is out of scope (for now).
