Chrome users have long been able to disable comments on YouTube videos, but a recent update has made this feature less accessible. If you want to keep comments enabled while using Chrome, follow these steps:
- Open Chrome and click the three lines in the top right corner of the browser window.
- Select “Settings.”
- Under “Advanced,” click “Comments.”
- In the “Enabled” column, select “Off.” ..
Before
Sometimes reading through the comments at YouTube can be interesting or even fun but at other times they can be a bother to you. It all depends on the contents of the comments (i.e. lots of profanity) and what you would like to have visible while watching videos.
After
Once you have installed the extension all that you will need to do is refresh the page (if you were already watching a video). As you can see any and all signs of the comments section is gone. All nice and clean now…
Conclusion
If you love to check out your favorite videos on YouTube but are annoyed by the multitude of meaningless and profane comments, this extension for Chrome gets the job done.
