I'm Dipto, the creator of Clify. Along with our amazing community of contributors, we've been working on this for the past year, and we're so excited to finally launch on Product Hunt!
Q: Why manual install? A: Great question! YouTube has strict policies on content blockers. Manual install lets us stay 100% transparent and avoid any risk of being taken down. Plus, it's actually super easy - just 2 minutes!
Q: How does multi-language blocking work? A: We use Unicode normalization and language-agnostic pattern matching. So when you type "movie| | | ", Clify blocks content in English, Arabic, Hindi, and Bengali simultaneously. Magic!
Q: Is it really free forever? A: YES! No premium tiers, no subscriptions, no tracking. We believe digital wellness shouldn't be a luxury. If you want to support us, star on GitHub or contribute translations!
Clify transforms YouTube into a productivity tool by automatically removing Shorts, blocking clickbait videos based on keywords, and hiding distracting content.
