# DeSlop

Userscript and browser extension for filtering out AI slop from your YouTube feed. Blocklist-driven.

## Description

Fetches a [blocklist from GitHub](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NikoboiNFTB/DeSlop/refs/heads/main/block/list.txt) and removes any and all videos from your feed that matches any entry on that list. Removes videos from Home and Subscriptions, and both videos and channels from Search.

Channels that publish fully AI-generated content as well as channels that promote or teach how to create it qualify as AI slop, and will therefore be blocked.

As a cherry on top, I _think_ YouTube still counts you as having technically "seen" the videos in your feed, but decided not to click them. Which should negatively impact the slop creators' click-through rates, all in the background, which is good.

[Contributions to the blocklist](#blocklist) are welcome!

## Installation

The functionality is identical across all mediums.

### Firefox

YouTube DeSlop can be installed as [A Firefox Add-on](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/youtube-deslop/).

### Chromium

You can add YouTube DeSlop as a local extension to Chromium, a directory is provided for it in `/chromium/`.

1. Download [the zip file](https://github.com/NikoboiNFTB/DeSlop/raw/refs/heads/main/chromium/1.6/1.6.zip) and extract it anywhere.
2. Go to `chrome://extensions/`
3. Enable **Developer Mode** in the top-right corner.
4. Click **Load unpacked** from the newly appeared bar.
5. Navigate to the extension **folder** and confirm.
   - Folder, not the zip file.
6. Done!

#### Note

DeSlop will **not** be on the Chrome Web Store.

I'm not doing Google's age verification and paying the fee just to get denied because they love AI slop.

![Fuck Google](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NikoboiNFTB/DeSlop/main/assets/20260112181741.png)

Edge Add-ons or Brave Browser Extensions are not entirely out of the question, for now.

### Userscript

1. Install your favorite userscript manager.
   - ([Violentmonkey for Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/violentmonkey/)/[Tampermonkey for Chromium](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/tampermonkey/dhdgffkkebhmkfjojejmpbldmpobfkfo)).
   - On Chromium, make sure Tampermonkey can actually _run_ userscripts:
     1. Go to `chrome://extensions/`
     2. Click **Details** under Tampermonkey
     3. Enable **“Allow access to file URLs”**, **“Allow User Scripts”** and **"Developer Mode"**, then hit **"Update"**
2. Click [the install link](https://github.com/NikoboiNFTB/DeSlop/raw/refs/heads/main/userscript/deslop.user.js) and install when prompted.
3. Done!

## Blocklist

> [!WARNING]
> The list is incomplete! Your help is much appreciated!

The blocklist can be found in [`/block/list.txt`](https://github.com/NikoboiNFTB/DeSlop/blob/main/block/list.txt).
