bug(YouTube): Hide 'For You' shelf is broken

[kairusds]

Bug description

I've patched the app to v20.12.46, and the Hide 'For You' shelf patch is not working as shown on the image below.

Rebooting the phone, toggling the patch, reinstalling the patched app, or excluding and enabling patches individually doesn't fix it.

Litho component logs are needed. Enable Debugging in ReVanced settings, use logcat | grep LithoFilter and send the output that is sent when this layout is rendered on the screen. Check online how to use logcat. IIRC theres also an export button in the settings

Here's the debug logs logs.txt

The component name has changed, and more detailed logs are needed.

Do this:

• Turn on Log protocol buffer
• Navigate to a channel page that shows the "For you" suggestions
• Copy/save the debug logs
• Search the copied/saved logs for "For you"
• Reply here with all log lines that contain "For you" (optionally, you can remove any IP addresses or random data from the log lines before replying here)

It's an a/b test where it's now a horizontal shelf and not the prior mixed_content_shelf.eml that other users see.

Selectively hiding that is much more difficult because the horizontal shelf is used all over the place for many different things.

For now you can use this custom filter and it should be hidden (this only works for users with the app language set to English):
horizontal_shelf$For You

It only hides the "For You" text

I forgot to mention that there's also these lines from before the log lines with the "For You" text that I suspect to be the actual horizontal shelf for the For You videos:

Then right now there isn't anyway to hide that.

The hide horizontal shelves setting might be modified to also hide this, but a way to not hide The shelves in the explore tab is needed because that fix prevents hiding the shelve on a channel page:

revanced-patches/extensions/youtube/src/main/java/app/revanced/extension/youtube/patches/components/LayoutComponentsFilter.java

Lines 450 to 454 in f15003a

	// Do not hide if the navigation back button is visible,
	// otherwise the content shelves in the explore/music/courses pages are hidde.
	if (NavigationBar.isBackButtonVisible()) {
	return false;
	}

The hide horizontal shelves setting might be modified to also hide this

Regarding to horizontal shelves, should also add to the description that "Most relevant" is also can be hidden in Subscriptions
