I use this add-on every day. I would really appreciate it if it could hide duplicates as the front page of thumbnails starts to get quite loaded with duplicates after you remove all you have watched and all the other junk. It starts listing videos multiple times as you scroll down and it loads new items at the bottom.

Interesting. Ive never seen that behavior before. Would you be able to take a screenshot?

Hi :)

Ok, its hard to find some when you are actually looking for them and even then they may not be both on one page but i have got a couple for you.

I use a script that expands the size of the thumbnails that autoplay when you hover over them, so in effect i just sit on the front page of YT and hover the mouse over what i want to watch. It pops out as a larger player with audio. Then i just scroll on down and down just hovering over each i want to watch.

Im just sooo lazy ^^

But as i say, after some time i think google starts to "offer" duplicates of vids iv already passed by [EDITED out "watched" for "passed by"].

It would be so cool to be able to filter the duplicates out in the same way that you filter out the watched & shorts.

Cheers for the app BTW, it makes my lazy YT browsing so much easier.

To clarify, when i say "But as i say, after some time i think google starts to "offer" duplicates of vids iv already watched." i dont mean your app is not removing vids iv already watched i mean it is presenting duplicates in the list of videos i have not "watched" but have passed by (seen in the list before). I misspoke, sorry.
