the Extension is a must have for everyone using YouTube, one thing to mention the Extension doesn't load properly all the times I'm using a FireFox fork, found people online complaining about the same thing, hope the dev addresses this issue in the NEXT update


Edit: a turn around fix that I use for now is a costume script

first install the Tampermonkey extension

second use this costume script(dont forget to edit the youtube and tampermonkey links):


// ==UserScript==
// @name Force Enhancer for YouTube
// @namespace past tampermonkey link here/
// @version 0.1
// @description Ensure Enhancer for YouTube loads consistently
// @author You
// @match past youtube link here /*
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==

(function() {
'use strict';

// Function to check if Enhancer for YouTube is loaded
function checkEnhancerYouTube() {
// Look for specific elements that Enhancer for YouTube creates
const enhancerLoaded = document.querySelector('#enhancer-for-youtube-controls') ||
document.querySelector('[id^="enhancer-for-youtube"]');

if (!enhancerLoaded) {
console.log('Enhancer for YouTube not detected, forcing reload...');

// Create a temporary element to trigger mutation observers
const trigger = document.createElement('div');
trigger.id = 'enhancer-youtube-trigger';
trigger.style.display = 'none';
document.body.appendChild(trigger);

// Dispatch events that might wake up the extension
window.dispatchEvent(new Event('resize'));
document.dispatchEvent(new Event('readystatechange'));

// Clean up and try again
setTimeout(() => {
trigger.remove();
checkEnhancerYouTube();
}, 2000);
}
}

// Run after YouTube has loaded
if (document.readyState === 'complete') {
setTimeout(checkEnhancerYouTube, 3000);
} else {
window.addEventListener('load', () => {
setTimeout(checkEnhancerYouTube, 3000);
});
}
})();
