I'm sure this has been asked/answered before, but I've been trying for days to find this out. Here's part of the backstory to provide more detail on what exactly I'm trying to do: I like this boyband, so obviously I continuously watch fancams/MVs/lyric videos/info channels of theirs. The problem comes when I'm on my homepage/watching a video and on my recommended list is some crap like 21+ fanfiction about the members because I literally hate that idea with a burning passion. Like so much I can't ignore it anymore. Nothing else bothers me, however I've tried to find extensions that would help me block based on keywords (i.e. 16+, 21+, Dirty Version). Video Blocker plus two others I've tried will not work for me at all. As of now I have it on restricted mode, which has helped some, but 1. I still see videos I don't want to see and 2. It has restricted videos I'm okay with. It also disabled the comments section. I may be a grown woman but I'd like to find something that could help filter this. Please tell me what else would work.

Get somebody to help you compose a coherent question.
PLEASE don't say anything if you have nothing nice to say. I personally believe that the question was stated clearly but, if you have a different opinion please state it a better way.
The blockers appear to utilize regexp. The statement to filter as you wish would be as follows:
(16\+)|(18\+)|(21\+)|(Dirty version)
[Case insensitive]
If you had used just +, that may explain why it didn't work. Don't know what you tried so hard to tell for sure.
Sorry I haven't answered yet. I did look in the chrome web store, which was where I found Video Blocker, but it sadly would not work at all. Right after I'd enable it, absolutely no videos would show up at all, and as soon as it was disabled, videos would show back up again. I have tried multiple times. I still should try your suggestion of blocking the history tracker though, so thanks for your answer!
For what it's worth, I've tried the FF one - pretty simple addition of wildcard / keyword (16+ for instance, no regexp) was successful.
If you had read my entire question, you would have realized that I'm asking about another extension that could help block what I want because the ones I have tried will not. I figured if I added exactly what I'd use it for (as in more details), someone who has been in the same boat as I might relate. I don't get offended easily, so I'd rather not be labelled as "butthurt" just because I asked about blocking something off my Youtube page. If you have an answer, please tell. If not, please don't bother.
