- This is great, to be honest. I wish there were a feature to hide the profile pictures of users in the comments to avoid bots.
- Shaurya Siwach
- Include an option for exclusive playback for the current tab and pause others if one tab is playing.
- BLACKOUT LP
- nice work 🎉
- BigTimeGamer
- very good 420/69 can use to fix YoTube's new format so i feel like im on youtube and not ticktock,
- Iamhated
- broken- it would be nice to see all this non-working **** purged so we don't have to try endless extensions just to find one that works
- Indiana Jones
- Pretty good. Can you add an on off button so I can see the changes?
- Fred Eric
- Almost perfect. I miss some cool features from "Improve YouTube!" extension. - custom control speed increment up to ×5 with custom shortkeys (reduce, increase, reset) - add a custom shortkey to toggle the "hide video controls on pause" feature - when using "compact left sidebar", add option to reveal full sidebar on hover - export settings to files instead of clipboard and import from file A github repo would be great to report and contribute. Regards

- Glory I don't have to have 3 videos per row anymore. If possible I would love to hide membership content on the home page.
- Farhan Bin Amin
- This is the best extension for YouTube
- GxArk
- Can you add miniplayer icon button back to youtube ?
- Tom Storvik
- Great extension with a decently extensive selection of skins for both bright and dark modes!
- TARA CHAND
- that's exactly what i wanted.
- potent
- im strokin it
- Heroine
- I cannot find an option where I could set default playback speed. I usually set it to 1.15x or 1.20x.
- mental disease
- 'Show full title' seems not to be working anymore for suggested videos.
- Vipin Prajapat
- Working good. But still missing option is to hide Movies for you section on homepage. Add option to hide that also.
- John
- I couldn’t enable theater mode because it doesn’t take up the full vertical space of the screen—it still shows part of the video description and other elements. Unlike the Tampermonkey script “YouTube Theater Plus,” which makes the player fill the entire vertical space of the webpage.
- Sean Lwin
- Simple and does exactly what it needs to do. Highly recommended!
- Radosvet Rumenov
- I HIGHLY recommend this extension for ANYONE who uses YouTube regularly!!
- Gonzalo Madurga
- has such a MASSIVE number of options, i can change youtube to be whatever i want it to be. amazing
- Pufferfish Puffer
- Peak. Got so used to the poor YouTube ui that the old one looks weird, but its good to be back.
- David Polonskiy
- Amazing!
- Michael Lorne
- Works great, gets YouTube working the way it should POWER TO THE PEOPLE One little quirk is that it triggers Internet Download Manager whenever it first activates to download an unsupported file type. Nothing nefarious I'm sure, but it is a quirk to note.

- Godsent, helped me fix the giant thumbnails, thank you
- p0k314COM
- Very professional work.
- Dušan Pešić
- brings me back to the olden days
- Endevor B
- very helpfull thank you
- Aaron Hui
- Recently, my YouTube limited the video gird to 3-4 columns max. Because of this, I went searching for a solution and I was surprised to see how fully featured this is. I especially find the minimum video thumbnail width to allow the columns to dynamically adjust if I have it on an Ultra-wide versus "Ultra-tall". One thing I would like is for the subscription list on the left bar to be adjustable in height. And also for the side bar to flyout from Compact would be a great feature to implement.
- Dekchai josh
- Pls add Keyboard Shortcuts Video speed

- I love you!
- Elia Dreytser
- Very useful!
- Anoncer
- Nice Extension!
- Anacleto Wambembe
- What a great extension to optimize and customize youtube. Downloaded primarily for disabling the auto-play feature for the 'Watch Later playlist' but there so many other neat features and whatnot. Really great job.
- JeffY
- It's working, but I couldn't find an option to export and import settings. It would be helpful if your are using multiple browsers or profiles.
- Vince Aggrippino
- I just wanted to hide / remove YouTube shorts. YouTube Tweaks does that perfectly, but also has a bunch of other neat features. This was even more satisfying after trying a few other Chrome extensions that claim to remove shorts, but don't actually do anything.
- Michael Goutman
- Must have extension. YouTube is basically unwatchable on desktop without this style, and now that it's an extension, I can use it seamlessly on all browsers and it automatically updates with the latest tweaks.
- Darren Nicholls
- So far seems great, many options for customizing Youtube website.
- Magnii
- the add-on worked correctly, but after some time it stopped starting automatically after opening a yt tab. Every time you open a tab you have to enable or disable any option from the menu for the add-on to work. Deleting cookies and browsing data does nothing. The problem also occurs in incognito mode Brave 1.74.51 Chromium: 132.0.6834.160
- Ryan Xu
- Underrated extension, really useful and has a clean, intuitive UI.
- Геннадий Касилов
- Worked great until recently. None of the functions work anymore. Very sad to lose such an extension. UPD: Fixed!
- GxArk
- Not working on Edge browser from January 3rd.
- blu3sh (- Ame -)
- Cool extension, but at least add an indicator for watched videos instead of just dim it, like a "watched" watermark on the thumbnail
- waquma getachew
- HIALAZER
- Christake
- this is even better and more copact extension that the other tweaks, simple and to the point will you be making themes for light youtube?
- Omar Gharbiyeh
- Fantastic. Everything I've been wanting in a youtube extension for years, and lightweight for what it does. My only suggested features would be: - the ability to separate the dimming/hiding functionality for All Videos/Fully Watched. (so, e.g., you could dim all videos and hide any that are fully watched.) - the ability to manually set the video watched percentage for each respective group (all videos/fully watched.)
- Noomagenial
- Extremely underrated extention
- Marco
- Very nice tweaks for Youtube. And the developer is friendly and tries to add new features on request (at least he did for mine)
- Окорочок
- Hide profile pictures feature aint working
- Josh L
- Amazing
