by Firefox user 13289695, 13 days agoLike many I installed this extension after the truly awful update that Youtube performed, placing comments off to the side in order to give us more videos to endlessly click on and distract us (this update also broke Return Youtube Dislikes which is an utterly crucial feature).
This extension works for that, and has some other features, but the one driving me crazy now is the one that pops up a video when we scroll down to read comments.
An excellent idea! However, I CANNOT GET IT TO WORK. Sometimes it pops up the video, other times it doesn't. It is maddening! Closing the window and using search to go back to the video often works... but, not always. Or similar things sometimes work, ... but, not always.
The uncertainty is so disturbing I unfortunately have to turn this feature off and do without it.
Hope something can be done!
ETA: I see that the when the popup video does not work, the toolbar is also not loaded. So that is some hint as to what is going on.
ETA: Following comments further down, I found that removing all the google and youtube cookies seems to fix this problem and it now seems to work perfectly! (Had to also restart firefox as some youtube icons disappeared)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Python, 9 hours agoThis extension changes youtube experience completely. I use it for years and recommend it.
- Rated 1 out of 5by detachable peanuts, 18 hours agoDoesn't work anymore. Gives me an error saying "playback isn't supported on this device" it goes away once I disable this add-on. will edit this review once it gets fixed. Shame, I really liked it.

The developer removed the ad-blocking feature because last year YT has changed their code that removed the ability to block ads with just a simple code injection. If you need to block YT ads, use uBlock Origin. - Rated 5 out of 5by George_w, a day agoEsta extensión es sin dudas, una de las mejores que existen en Mozilla hasta la fecha.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Cyberknight, 2 days agoIt suddenly lost relevance. Sure, most options are still there, but the one that really used to make YT feel different is gone, the ad-blocker. There are much lighter extensions out there that can do that specific task. Let's hope the feature will be back, soon...

- Rated 3 out of 5by BWX, 5 days agoI really appreciated when you updated this a while ago. Sadly it is breaking playback especially on watch later playlist. Video playback just constantly freezes all the time. If I disable this add-on it works. Also no matter how I resize screen I get giant thumbnails, like 3 across instead of 5 or 4 depending on how I scale screen. I can't really stand watching YT without this add-on, without the mouse wheel volume, volume boost button, etc.. I sure hope it can be fixed, I pay for YT premium and donated to you for this add-on. Even if you just made volume boost button and mouse wheel volume control and that's it, I would still use it and be happy.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18390239, 6 days agoGreat addon, sadly youtube keeps breaking it.
Also, the latest update (apr 25, 2024) is giving me issues with playback of videos causing temporary spikes in cpu usage which lock up my system.
Given the history of the developer, this will undoubtedly be fixed soon enough though.
Best of luck dealing with youtube and thank you for a wonderful extension. - Rated 2 out of 5by Serhii, 6 days agoIt deserves 5 stars, but today only 2.
