av Savannah, 3 år sidenMore edit: Cannot view comments when this app is enabled, regardless of whether I select "shown", "collapsed", or "hidden". This makes this add-on's single most useful feature unusable, and I'm on the verge of uninstalling.
Edit: I've tried previous versions and the issue is still there. Edit: 1) The "won't play" issue turned out to be caused by turning off "Autoplay" under "Player". I assume and hope this isn't intended behaviour. 2) The "top and bottom are cut off" issue turned out to be caused by turning off "limit page width". To me it seems backwards that there's an option that needs to be switched ON to maintain normal behaviour, and causes abnormal (and undesirable) behaviour when you switch it OFF. I feel like it should be the other way around. 3) No, I don't have a rare computer or system. Edit: I thought the Autoplay setting was causing the pausing issue, as it seemed to go away whenever I turned it off and come back when I turned it on. This is no longer the case. So I guess that's not the cause after all.
This COULD be really great, and would replace at least two other addons for me. It's also the only addon I've found that can hide comments without getting rid of the comment field, a feature I've wanted for a long time. But I can't play YouTube videos when I have this enabled! It will only play a frame or maybe a few frames at a time before pausing again by itself. And even when it does play, the top and bottom of the video are cut off! I've experimented with all the settings and nothing helps. Disabling my other YouTube-related addons didn't help either.

postet 3 år sidenEDIT2: ah! hey, probably the autoplay setting! (i couldn't reproduce either in the latest Firefox. But it was reported 3 times by now)
https://github.com/code-for-charity/YouTube-Extension/issues/1213 ( The other setting is new and could also be called "Unlimited page width" to be more intuitive. (even though technically it is something that Youtube visually does by default already and we just switch it off. We can always improve and make the most important features bigger and label some others as rare/specific. But this is an avid task and not trivial and should not be required to avoid low ratings ( https://github.com/code4charity/YouTube-Extension/discussions/748 )
- this project is actually is the only existing solution for many things and the most convenient one too in comparision. Most settings allow to see the effect instantly on the current page, unlike all alternatives, that require to make settings in different tabs. (- yet 'youtube enhancer' & 'magic actions for youtube' do have a million more users still) - and bad ratings might make the gap bigger if anything.
(To be more precise, the width limit feature is meant to allow the site/video to expand to the sides. This means, if you have a superwide screen or also hide related videos, then the video height wont fit fully, unless you also hide the youtube header, or zoom or use auto-fullscreen. We are not a one-fit-all solution by definition for a billion users like YouTube itself. We volunteer to serve specific wishes. Most users are willing to experiment for some minutes for once. In a 100 features a few will in fact naturally not help you. All of which we can try to label perfectly in the next update, but never avoid completely, by nature of even having more than a few features. You can still refer to your list of 'activiated Features' (and currently this feature only appears once you disabled the button.) (You can also reset our settings to go back to YouTube defaults.) Anything could be labeled or come with an alert, but thats also complification in the eyes of other users. (You don't need to click a button unless it makes sense to you.)
----------
EDIT: Thanks, tough luck* - Almost there though! (*this confirms it is a rare bug. However we will be happy to fix it for you in time!) - Did you notice the last 4 Versions are all within a few days?😊 - If you go back a step further (3.223 or 3.899), then it works most-likely and you will have discover easily, at what version the bug starts🤩. (Finally, you probably have a rare computer or system? (and can see whats happening in the browser console?) bugs@improvedtube.com. BTW you can quickly try an extension in a private tab, with no other extension running just to make sure) -----------------
hi, thanks. Please understand some bugs are rare and bad luck. The bigger a project is, the less likely you run into any, but it can't be excluded completely. To find it fastest you might need to report more details ( https://github.com/code4charity/YouTube-Extension/issues ). Also likely it just started yeserday and was not there in the prevous versions, which you can still get. Many Features: Yes, browser extensions are unfortunately supposed/presented to be small/single-purpose. Still we are providing a 100 of the most wished and requested features without 100 times more success than easy extensions. This is also much more teditious than making our own site which would be fun/need no maintenance. We are volunteers working hard. Youtube has a billion times more money than us. So you might not want to give 1 star, to support the cause getting anywhere near as much visiblity, as it deserves (and consequently even faster fixes) Many smiles!

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av darkredandwhite, 3 dager sidenPlease add an option to move the position of YouTube's subtitles. I believe this feature is built-in on PC, but it's not available on Android. Adding it would be a great improvement.

postet én dag sidenhi! on m.youtube (mobile layout), most of our page-layout features might not work just yet but playback features like resolution, speed, volume should and several percent of daily users are on android. Let us know or join us on github. Thank you! - Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av paulcalebfarmer, 12 dager siden

Ad block isn't working
"Shorts" hiding on homepage isn't working - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av flurry, 14 dager sidenIts about high time i gave this a great review. without extensions like this one youtube is simply unusable. trim out all the fluff, get rid of all the influencer garbage, the unfair algorythms promoting constant garbage in your face, this extension does a great job at just cleaning up your youtube and finally make it just about the content again. i've been using this for many years now, i should have reviewed it much earlier, but hey better late than never, i hope!

The live chat collapsed option has the same behavior as normal, while the hide option leaves an empty space on the right side of the window, collapsing the video description and the recommended videos. - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 14684219, 22 dager siden

- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av Lestify, én måned sidenI can barely use the functions provided. Even though they are great the ones I use. Too laggy. Change appearance doesn't work, way to buggy.

postet én måned sidendid you try again? might requires a more specific bug report. (or If this would only be about 180 features and different browser, we might be done for long. Please consider YouTube might change quickly, so not every feature will always work 97% or so is great already) - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av KG003, én måned siden

postet én måned sidenSince when and how exactly? please join us on Github for a bug report if you can. (Also Firefox reviews are not meant for single feature bug reports. You aren't supposed to vote us down like this) thanks- Vurdert til 3 ut av 5av Shroom of Prey, én måned sidenI loved this addon and its features, however a while back videos on youtube stopped playing for me and i had to switch to incognito mode to be able to watch anything. At first i thought it was due to one of the other extensions, but after some testing i realized it was this one. It's a great addon, but sadly it doesn't work.
