Reviews & Comments of No Content Warning YouTube chrome extension

does not work

doesnt work i still see the warning

Doesn't do the one thing it's supposed to do. I installed it, closed all my chrome windows and re-opened them, and tested with a Rage Against The Machine song both directly within Chrome and within the Youtube Music app. It didn't skip or disable the content warning, the song still paused and refused to play until I manually clicked on the album cover art and clicked Yes.

It works for me.

It doesn't get rid of the warning, but it DOES "skip" it. I know it sounds "weird" to some people, but content warnings are a gigantic trigger for me, and it is EXTREMELY upsetting that I can't turn them off. If the person who uploaded the video adds content warnings into the video itself, there's nothing I can do but not watch their videos or that video anymore if I need to not see it, which would be the same for people who are triggered by certain types of videos and topics if there were no warnings; they would self-avoid those things or just find a way to cope with it while watching if there was no warning. Maybe find a plugin to help them avoid them; they exist I think. But when it's on the entire YouTube platform like it is? Well now I wish there was a way to turn the feature off as far as their coding goes, that way people who want it can have it and people who don't want it can just turn it off. Just giving some background for why I downloaded this. It does skip the warning after a few seconds, but the warning still shows which makes it defeat the purpose, as many people don't want to see the warning in the first place. I'm going to give more background as to why I believe an add-on like this is direly needed now. Some people might get upset because I am not just blindly going along with being okay with content warnings, but I don't argue, especially in review section comments. So that is a heads up to anyone who might want that. I only point this out because I also have a mental illness where I hear voices and, well, they're telling me to make sure I point this out. Yes I can understand them. Like I said, if it were the other way around and I found a triggering video series and no way to warn me about it, then I avoid it myself instead, because no one forces me to watch it. This isn't the same as that, where there is no "protection" so you give it to yourself. This is YouTube adding "protection" and not giving us a way out of it if we don't want it. I already lived a life where I had my will taken from me almost daily, to where I am on medication for life because of the way it's messed me up psychologically. That's part of why this is so upsetting. It's like being forced to be a part of the experience. For a period in time, I was actually triggered by certain video topics. But I didn't feel FORCED to watch them, because not providing me with protection isn't going against my will, it's just simply not providing me with protection. Then, I would either watch it or I didn't. It didn't FEEL fair at the time because I was forced into being triggered by those things by those who hurt me and I guess I felt like that meant people should be forced to endure a warning even things out, but other people shouldn't be forced into being effected because of MY triggers. They weren't the ones who abused me. I'm not anymore special than they are and vice versa. No one is more special. Everyone is equally special. I'm sure they have struggles too, things that haunt them. And I know being triggered SUCKS, but NOT giving the feature isn't the same as forcing you to endure triggers. The only way that'd be true is if YouTube STARTED out like that and then just took it away completely without warning, THEN I could at least say that it blind sighted people. And people like me who are bothered by warnings would just stay away from the site from the get go. I have different things to compare this to cued up but I'll omit it. So yeah, this feature. This is a thing that you cannot get away from, even in music playlists where it'll just skip a song entirely. On YouTube TV version you can't even watch a warned video unless you go into the main YouTube channel of the entire Google account, thus messing up that channel's algorithm until you delete the video from your history there. I don't want to rate it completely one-star because programming is difficult. Maybe they can work on it and get it to actually not show the warning whatsoever. That's also dependent on how much of YouTube's code can be worked around as well. Then it will be the go-to plugin. At least until YouTube decides to give us the option to turn it off. Please, if you can, find away to get this working. It's NECESSARY right now.

Doesn't work still
