!!!! YouTube drastically changes main page layout. This script is now broken !!!!

This script allows you to filter (hide) group of actions of other users, who you are subscribed to.
For example, if you not interested what video they liked, you can hide it. By default script will hide information about posted comment, liked video, video added to playlist and user subscribed to another.
Script will use currently pointless View menu (Highlights, Everything; if this even worked for anyone?, I have the exact video no matter which option I choose) and changed it, so you can control which action you like to hide. Your filter settings are stored in your browser local storage.This script is still WIP and I didn't implement everything I wanted. There some minor bugs or problems I didn't worked on:- script overloads the XMLHttpRequest.prototype.open to detect when the page changes, but Firefox doesn't allow to do this and I read that overloading XMLHttpRequest isn't a very good idea anyway, so I need to find other method to fire script after AJAX loads more videos,- script still works after selecting an user from left menu, but it lacks the menu, so in order to change filter settings, you need to return to main feed, it will work even if you check the option "Show uploads only", so if you choose to hide uploads and check the "Show uploads only" it will show no videos, unless you change the filter setting.
