I built a completely free forever open-source productivity Application called NoSuggest and featured it in HN community. Now recently I have implemented keyboard navigations, skip …

NoSuggest is using official YouTube iFrame player. No explicitly removing ads or views. No downloading or hosting any videos in NoSuggest. All views and ads revenue if YouTube serv…

Latest 5 videos of the channel. If the creator has only 3 videos posted many years ago, then NoSuggest will bring up those 3 videos only. Purely up to content creators.

NoSuggest more focused for mobile users where real doom scrolling happens. Unhook don't work in mobiles. There are some alternative solutions which require high technical knowledge…

Thank you. Glad that you like it. Please use the app and provide feedback.

Interesting idea but the whole philosophy here is no algorithm at all, not a better one.

Interesting, haven't seen that one. NoSuggest takes the opposite approach though, no algorithm at all rather than a better one.

In previous versions, I had a direct YouTube channel link in the feed. So if user wants to see more than 5 videos of that channel then clicking on the link would take them directly…

That's really good idea which I am getting multiple times from Show HN post. Never thought about it before. Would definitely do it next. Thank you very much!

That's a nice idea for future enhancement. But for now, if in case you use different devices for different purpose like laptop for learning and mobile for background entertainment …

That's great idea. Yes, that solves the YouTube in browser problem. I tried to solve here the remaining problem which is doom scrolling in mobile.

Interesting. But it won't work with mobiles i believe. Which is were real doom scrolling would happen. NoSuggest installs just like a native app and do the job of YouTube app witho…

No, the name itself is NoSuggest. Not suggesting anything. Just a platform to watch Youtube videos of your choice and nothing else. Please try it out and provide feedback. Thank yo…

It is same exact feeling I have with YouTube. Although I used YouTube more than any other streaming platforms. That frustration is exactly what NoSuggest is trying to fix, at least…

Yeah, I tried that too. But when I watch a video of the channel I like, there will be unending side cards of videos suggesting what to watch next. There are so many ways YouTube tr…

Fair critique. The browser extension approach works well on desktop but does not work on mobile at all, which is exactly where the algorithm does the most damage. That's the gap No…

Yes, it is using RSS feeds per channel and also there are multiple fallbacks built. NoSuggest is a curated experience just like YouTube but without algorithm recommendations.

Sorry, it won't work like a YouTube app in TV. But if you can install a browser to your smart TV and access the URL then it will work just like in laptop.

That is a fair point and I hear you. The encrypted account idea is interesting. How about an export/import feature where you can save your channel list as a file and reload it anyt…

Yes, I 100% agree with you. Thank you for bringing it up. And date filter: that is a fun way to use YouTube. The search tab in NoSuggest lets you search for specific videos without…

FreeTube is great but it is a desktop app you have to install. NoSuggest works on any device straight from the browser, especially mobile where nothing else really works. Give it a…
