Show HN: Weedout – Safari extension that hides YouTube AI-labeled videos

AI 摘要

I'm the developer. I built this because AI-generated conspiracy videos were getting out of control in my own YouTube feed. Weedout is a $1.99 Safari extension for macOS that removes videos YouTube labels “Made with AI” from feed, search, related videos, playlists and Shorts. It uses YouTube's label rather than AI detection, runs locally, and does not catch unlabeled videos.

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.

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).
