🎯 Why This Exists

YouTube automatically pauses videos after a period of inactivity and shows a “Video paused. Continue watching?” prompt.
This extension removes that interruption so your content keeps playing when you’re still listening or watching.

Ideal use cases:

• 🎵 Music playlists & albums
• 🎙️ Podcasts & long-form discussions
• 🌙 Ambient videos (rain, lo-fi, white noise)
• 📚 Educational videos & lectures
• 🎮 Livestreams & VODs

Important:
🚫 This extension does not block ads
💰 It does not interfere with monetization
🎛️ It only prevents the passive viewing timeout dialog

✨ Key Features

• 🧠 Automatic Dialog Removal — A 3-layer system ensures the popup never appears
• 💻📱 Desktop & Mobile Support — Works on www.youtube.com and m.youtube.com
• 🔒 Minimal Permissions — YouTube access only
• 🕵️ Zero Data Collection — No tracking, no telemetry, ever
• ⚡ Lightweight & Efficient — Minimal CPU and memory usage
• 🎚️ Easy Toggle — Simple on/off switch in the popup
• 🔍 Privacy-First & Transparent — No external connections, fully open-source

🛡️ How It Works

For maximum reliability, the extension uses a multi-layered approach:

🧱 Layer 1: CSS Injection

Hides the dialog instantly using targeted CSS—before JavaScript even runs.

👀 Layer 2: DOM Monitoring

A MutationObserver watches for the dialog and removes it immediately if detected.

🖱️ Layer 3: Activity Simulation

Periodically simulates minimal user activity (e.g., mouse movement events) to reset YouTube’s idle timer and prevent the dialog from triggering at all.
