Rated 4 out of 5
by Angel, a year agoUPDATED
Haven't tried the extension much. I mostly wanted to be able to adjust the playback speed with keyboard shortcuts.
FINDING SETTINGS. I found it tricky to find the settings/options for the extension. They can be found by clicking the navigation bar icon. If the icon is not visible in the navigation bar, click the extension icon (puzzle piece), and then the name of the extension (not the settings gear next to the name).
My initial review was just asking for instructions on how to find the settings, which has been requested several times before and still remained unanswered. The developer seems to take everything as a personal attack and interpreting low ratings as malicious, and rather than giving straight answers goes on rants and insult the reviewers.

posted a year agoEDIT: hi again Sir, we still didn't insult you at all. Most of all browser extensions are just used this way, with nav-bar icons most of the time. After installation the appear at the "puzzle piece", then people "pin" them. Browser changed this a few times in over the years. It is is no bad, if you aren't an expert of these particular facts, but as said this extension is made for the common and easy way only. In about 10.000 user messages i read this maybe 5 times, so it is highly unlikely to appear 3 times in a row in 2023. BTW. i even I took the time for to figure out enabling your preferred other way to call the options, which is available since 5 days now. If you don't care for the extension and didnt find an issue, you shouldn't even rate 4 stars. It is below our average of 4.52.
Thanks

Still unsure whats the joke. Why would you feel so strong here? It is very unlikely / paradox if you wait for this extension like christmas gifts and already know the features are good, yet already want to attack the giver / volunteers. You might not want to hurt enduring volunteers or be perceived as spam. One more time: You can review the answer. It is informative. Most of all extensions have a navbar-browser-icon. Searching for options in the browser's full extension list is a bit old /outdated way and if you open it like that, it is far from what we meant (, which is switching on features while you are on YouTube to see the effect immediately).

Ad block isn't working
"Shorts" hiding on homepage isn't working - Rated 5 out of 5by flurry, 2 days agoIts about high time i gave this a great review. without extensions like this one youtube is simply unusable. trim out all the fluff, get rid of all the influencer garbage, the unfair algorythms promoting constant garbage in your face, this extension does a great job at just cleaning up your youtube and finally make it just about the content again. i've been using this for many years now, i should have reviewed it much earlier, but hey better late than never, i hope!

- Rated 3 out of 5by denis1276, 9 days agoThe import/export settings buttons do not work.
The live chat collapsed option has the same behavior as normal, while the hide option leaves an empty space on the right side of the window, collapsing the video description and the recommended videos. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14684219, 9 days ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Lestify, 15 days agoI can barely use the functions provided. Even though they are great the ones I use. Too laggy. Change appearance doesn't work, way to buggy.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Tyrone, 20 days agoHamburger menu button doesn't do anything when clicked on, otherwise it'd be a 5 star.

posted 17 days agodid you try again? might requires a more specific bug report. (or If this would only be about 180 features and different browser, we might be done for long. Please consider YouTube might change quickly, so not every feature will always work 97% or so is great already) - Rated 5 out of 5by KG003, 22 days ago

posted 17 days agoSince when and how exactly? please join us on Github for a bug report if you can. (Also Firefox reviews are not meant for single feature bug reports. You aren't supposed to vote us down like this) thanks- Rated 3 out of 5by Shroom of Prey, a month agoI loved this addon and its features, however a while back videos on youtube stopped playing for me and i had to switch to incognito mode to be able to watch anything. At first i thought it was due to one of the other extensions, but after some testing i realized it was this one. It's a great addon, but sadly it doesn't work.
