Useful

I love this add-on but, recently, I encounter a strange behavior: when I select a site I am subscribed to in a PocketTube folder, PocketTube shows me the "Videos" page of the channel which is then constantly refreshing/flashing (or jumping to the next page?) until it shows me a blank page (the last page?). When I click on the "Home" tab of the channel, this behavior stops. It seems to only happen on the "Videos" tab.

I use the latest version of Firefox on Windows 10.
This behavior disppears if I switch off PocketTube. Cheers

EDIT: thanks for your reply. Spot on, I must have disabled it by error. Thanks! I updated to 5 star!

this extension is really comprehensive. it must have taken a lot of effort and attention to detail. I plan to get the full version soon, as its not that expensive and i feel unethical using the product of such effort and time without paying the creator.

Not open-source, some features are locked behind paywall. Sad to see this is the only extension that has channel grouping.

I understand making extension like this costs money but at least you could make donation optional rather than locking some of features behind a paywall.

Other than that, I am using the base feature very well. However please keep this review in mind and won't change this review unless the above problem gets resolved.

The idea is for 5 stars for sure. On chrome it seems to work pretty well. However, on Firefox it is kinda buggy.

Sometimes changes are not saved in spite of the fact the notification pop up explicitly says that changes have been changed. Sometimes you need to refresh the page to see the subscription list. Sometimes it works okay. Tried to disable other plugins, but didn't solve any issue.

Will keep using it for a while though.

-- edit --

After using it for a couple of days, it certainly deserves 4 stars, so I increased my rating from 3 to 4 stars.

Just for reference, the problems I describe above are in my Linux systems and in more than 2 (fully updated) computers. The problems mostly occur when i massively change the categories on the channel list. Apart from that, everything else runs smoothly.

VERY useful extension for a feature that youtube should have included as standard a long time ago, showing that a single person can do better than a multi-billion company

simple to use, very practical, and the non-paying part is more than sufficient

a big thank to the creator and good work

After a year and a half of use, with more than 300 subscriptions organized, suddenly yesterday all my groups got deleted. And my backup is a year old 🤦.

افزونه‌ي کاربردی‌ای هستش. بازدهی شما رو از یوتیوب، افزایش میده.

very privacy invasive, signed me up for some email list i never asked for or was aware that i agreed to

Did it break recently? I'm seeing shorts again

Reply: I figured it was a youtube change blocking it and not yourself. Subs page doesn't have options on top anymore and I don't see the subs manager section on the left panel, but it looks working in FF options

機能としてはかなり便利なんですが、どうしても挙動が不安定なところが少しあるのでそこが減点。

The firefox version is buggier than the chrome version, if you can stand it, this add-on still usefull.

yeah it works, but why does it hide certain videos from the all subscription feed?? How many videos did I miss bc of this strange behaviour?? only hide when I click a certain group. Then you can show all (new) vids from the channels in the group and hide the rest. But when I go to youtube / feed / subscriptions and don't click any group or whatever then I wanna see ALL new videos, don't hide a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g.!!!

Also, and these are less important issues that I previously posted, why is the 'adding channels to a group'-process restricted to a small paged popup window? Do you really think I started watching youtube just yesterday? that I started subscribing to channels just a moment ago? I've been watching youtube vids since YT's first creation and am subscribed to hundreds of channels. You want me to sort through that in a miniscule frame? gimme a browserwindow-large sorting window with infinite scroll at least so I can have a good overview. It's bad enough already that I can only see each channel's icon+name/handle (which most times isn't very informative about the channel's content), but at least give me a c.l.e.a.r . w.i.d.e . o.p.e.n overview to ease my sorting

And another suggestion, in this 'select channels to add to group' window, label each channel with tags to which groups they're added to already. eg when I add a channel to the group 'tutorial' and am then later in the selection window for adding channels to 'art' then show a 'tutorial' tag behind the channels that I added to the tutorial group earlier. That way I can have a bit more info on the channel than only it's icon+name already! Plus then I have a direct view on which channels are yet not grouped in any of my groups
