Customize, shuffle and play random videos from any YouTube channel.
Do you have a favourite YouTube channel, but don't know what to watch? This extension is for you!
The "Random YouTube Video" extension adds a "Shuffle" button to YouTube channel, video and shorts pages, which will play a truly random video from the current channel. Use the extension's popup to customize your experience even further!
Level up your YouTube experience with these features:
✔ A new shuffle button that uses the native look and feel of YouTube - including dark mode - so it fits right in with the YouTube interface you're used to!
✔ Utilize a wide range of options to individualize your experience, such as ignoring shorts, only shuffling from the most recent videos or shuffling multiple videos into a playlist!
✔ A smart, 100% anonymous backend technology ensures that popular channels shuffle as fast as possible, no matter how many video uploads they have!
✔ ...and much more!

- The popup now also works as a standalone options page.
- When watching shorts, the extension will now update the last visited channel in the popup.

- The playlist that is opened when shuffling (if the option is enabled) now has a better title and tooltip.
- The shuffle button now feels more responsive when clicked, and will give more information if it takes a bit longer to shuffle.
- The popup now feels smoother in some places, and will make it clearer when some inputs are invalid.
- If certain errors are encountered, the playlist will still be saved locally and in the database, to speed up the next shuffle.
- Fixed bugs that would prevent some initialization logic to run after the extension is updated.
