- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17787471, a year agoFunktioniert nicht. Zeigt immer die selben Kommentare an, die nichts mit der Suche zu tun haben.
- Rated 3 out of 5by BrysonDavid, a year agoIt worked really well for about a year but then recently it stopped highlighting thins and didn't narrow down comments. Sometime it just says 0 comments. Whenever I type something in and press "enter" it just brings up the comment section that i can scroll down and see.
- Rated 3 out of 5by TheGameringOP, a year agoAlways worked and sometimes it didn't work on certain videos but it was still great, but about a month ago it just stopped working (doesn't actually filter the keyword just highlights it but doesn't filter these comments just showing all the comments)
Edit: tried to uninstall and reinstall and have the latest version, don't know how to update permissions since it only shows what permissions.
Edit again: works again from the latest update but is working slowly - Rated 5 out of 5by Tes, 2 years agoThis add-on was great until it suddenly stopped working a few days ago. It just says "Ups, something went wrong..." on every attempt now.
Edit 12/06/2022: I uninstalled and reinstalled the add-on and now it's back! Thanks for the update.Developer response
posted 2 years agoEnsure you have latest version of extension, I changed hosting provider since old one removed free plan. - Rated 1 out of 5by Eugene Leesz Lei, 2 years agoNo longer working as of 2022/12/3. Showing "Ups Something went wrong..." on every video. Tried switching computers, networks, clearing cookies etc and no change. GitHub shows last update on 4 months ago, seems to be abandoned.

Sometimes it has trouble searching for things tho. You also can't search on youtube shorts which is unfortunate. but other than that it works really well

- Rated 5 out of 5by Anexzs, 2 years agoIt works 50% of the time, often showing the "Ups Something went wrong..." error or straight up not showing comments with the keyword I entered, despite there clearly being such comments. So yeah, it does work but is quite unreliable.
Update: Works much better now. - Rated 5 out of 5by Loganix, 2 years agoWorks great. Would be great if you could like the comments searched. Thanks!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13302641, 2 years agoGenerally works fine, but refuses to work on certain videos, shows a message "Oops, something went wrong".
- Rated 5 out of 5by Drednaught, 2 years agoGreat, but there is an annoying problem where, more often than not, one word searches don't work and the extension says, "Ups, something went wrong..."

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14372178, 3 years agoWorks very well! It's a pity you can't like or answer a comment.

posted 3 years agoAgree, unfortunately YouTube doesn't support comment likes through API. Replying to the comment could be implemented tho but only with user authentication (the only way to know which user replied on which comment) - Rated 5 out of 5by Matix, 3 years agoWorks great! Thanks for this extension!
An icon for the search in the video player would be very useful, such as in Enhancer for YouTube. - Rated 4 out of 5by WXD, 3 years agoThe extension works very well, I just wish there was the possibility to search for comments on the entire channel, for example I write "global:Hello World" then it searches in all videos for comments that contain these words and at the end returns a query with the comments from these videos.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15246960, 3 years agoAwesome extension... Perfectly does what it is intended to do.
### REQUEST ###
Add feature to like, comment and reply to the searched comments. If you could do this.. I am sure this will be featured in several tech articles. :P
Also add count of the comments that came in results.Developer response
posted 3 years agoUnfortunately, feature to like comments can't be implemented because of YouTube API limitation.
On the other side, replying to a comment could be implemented but it would require user to grant YouTube permissions(scopes) to a extension, simple speaking, it would require user authentication. I'll think of adding this feature for sure.
Thanks for feedback!
