A general method for hiding any tab by @inotia00, is this a viable method for this issue, @LisoUseInAIKyrios ?

It's a shame the tab can only be identified by the localized text, which means for the user to hide it they need to manually enter the localized word for "Store".

Hiding this seems like a minor benefit since it's only an extra tab and not initially selected or anything obnoxious.

Oh, I didn't know that. But, given the current state of having no way, this seems as a better option for now right?

With the implementation of this, the user can hide any tabs as they want. It could be the "Shorts" tab for those who really don't like to see Shorts anywhere in YT layout or the "Playlist" or any tab of their preference.

[LisoUseInAIKyrios]

Yeah it could be used for hiding other channels tabs. The patch is not very complex either.

It still seems like a niche feature since it requires the end users to setup, and how often does anyone view a channel page? Probably not as often as one might think.

[ILoveOpenSourceApplications]

Interesting point. Customizing tabs could really cater to personal preferences and streamline the user experience. It’s about giving users more control over how they interact with content. It might seem niche, but even niche features can enhance overall satisfaction. Especially given that store tab on channel profile is basically product promotion/advertising and we don't want that now do we.
