YouTube adds ‘Hide’ button for end‑screen recommendations, here’s what it means for users

YouTube has introduced a 'Hide' button for end-screen recommendations, addressing user frustration with obstructive pop-ups. This feature allows viewers to temporarily remove these suggestions for an unobstructed viewing experience. While creators retain the ability to add end screens, YouTube is also removing the redundant hover-to-subscribe watermark, aiming to balance creator promotion with user control.
