bug(YouTube - Hide layout components): Hide community posts does not work for new type of community post

[therealnumber8]

Bug description

Youtube rolled out a new type of community post in which creators can link their old videos. It looks exactly like a regular community post but with a video attached to the post at the bottom. This new type of community post is not being hidden despite the "turn community posts off" toggle.

example (this is in subscription subscribption feed)

my settings:

"hide_community_posts_channel": true,
"hide_community_posts_subscriptions": true,

Error logs

to reproduce, simply sub to a channel that has done this and go to subscribtions.

Someone who is savvy with logcat needs to identify a custom filter that hides these.

Do this before

Log protocol buffer should only be used for local debugging.

Don't submit logs with that on unless you've manually inspected every line for any private information and redacted anything questionable.

Protocol buffer will include device IP and other potential personal information.

and the regular logcat?

[LisoUseInAIKyrios]

The regular debugging switch should be on. It logs no private data.

Update: I decompiled the youtube app and tried to exclude some moe elements to no avail.

Confirm with filter videos_post_root.eml

Confirm with filter videos_post_root.eml

This fixed it! May I ask how did you find that this was the element?

I got it from the linked PR. You can find it by filtering the logs.
