Block ONLY YouTube Front Page

Post by NoFrontPagePLS »

Hello,

So along with this new design, they made their theme using very generic tag and class which now makes impossible to block a specific part of the website without blocking something else.
I want to block the frontpage part where "recommended channels" and "most populars movies" are showed off. It annoys me and degrades my experience on YouTube by showing me stuffs I clearly don't care about. Every single time I go to YouTube it keeps recommending channels I have no interest in.

I've tried the following:

Code: Select all

www.youtube.com##div[style="transform: translateX(0px);"]
But unfortunately it blocks some parts on the homepage of any channels.

So instead I had an idea about ONLY blocking the root domain of YouTube like this:

Code: Select all

https://www.youtube.com##div[style="transform: translateX(0px);"]
The rule should ONLY be valid for "https://www.youtube.com" and executed ONLY on this part. Unfortunately it does nothing at all.
I've been scratching my head on it for a few hours on the adblock documentation and I coudn't find a way to achieve my objective.

Does anyone know or can find a way ? I'm certainly not the only one who will enjoy a solution to this annoying problem.
