Hey, Can you please explain more about your enhancement feature request. How can I see it??

I am looking for a setting, perhaps under parental controls or distractions, that hides (or deactivates the link to) the channel. For example, if I star a certain video, it now is on our feed and playlist, but sometimes I dont want my child to access that entire channel, which they can currently easily do by clicking on the youtube channels name which appears as a direct link under each video. A way to hide that information sounds like a reasonably doable task, so am hoping someone can make that an available toggle in the settings. Thank you so much

@Jgh5017 Does it make sense to allow clicking the channel if your child is already subscribed to the channel or do you see any issues with this?

@rajpatel17-bot Is this something that you would be interested in working on?

Hey @Jgh5017, I want to ask you that how we can detect that the user is a parent or their child??

Hey I have still some dought on it So if It will clear then definitely, I am happy to working on.
Thankyou...

These wouldnt be channels we are subscribed to, just a singular video. I want to toggle off access to the channel link that would allow them to see all of the other videos. Perhaps just a toggle to "Hide Channel" in the Distraction settings.

By that I meant, if you're watching a video and you happen to be subscribed to the person who created the video. Do you think the link should still be removed? 🙂

Oh! Sorry I didn't understand your question -- for my situation, that wouldn't matter - whatever would be easier for coding purposes. If we are subscribed though, we wouldn't necessarily need to hide that link and at times it would be useful to have it be clickable.. But if that creates a coding challenge, I would be happy with just being able to hide that link in general.

Also there is a way to get to other videos by going to a channels "About" section, then there is a "Featured Channels" category that lets you access lots of other channels. If the About section could be toggled to hide as well, that would help with this!

It would probably be better if you opened another issue for this 🙂

Will do!

Based on the provided information and the code, it seems like the primary functionality involves hiding or disabling various UI elements related to channels and videos. Let's clarify the possible interpretations:

"Hide Channel" Toggle Button Interpretation 1:

1. Clicking this button might disable the links (channel image and channel name) that direct users to the corresponding channels.
2. In this case, users would not be able to navigate to the linked channels when the toggle is active.
   

"Hide Channel" Toggle Button Interpretation 2:

1. Activating this toggle might disable various components, including video descriptions, video recommendations, autoplay features, and any other UI elements that could lead to navigating to other videos or channels.
2. In this case, the goal is to create a distraction-free viewing experience by hiding or disabling these elements.

Let me know which one is the expected result as well as any suggested approach you have :)

Hi @AnshuMishra01 , option 1 would probably be the best as there are already other options that hide the recommended and description
