It's great, if only it would disable itself when writing a comment, it'd be perfect.

Doesn't work
does not work
I like this add on. It does what it says it does. I got 1 problem with it though. Typing comments will trigger the actions that are linked to some keys. I would suggest a key that puts the focus on the message area. use enter for sending? and after sending put the focus back to the rest of the page. you get what im saying
Loved the extension but can't use it recently. Plz Fix
If this extension enabled youtube comment section doesn't work. Example some shortcuts prevented typing letters: h, u, a, z, s, p, o, j, k, [, ], x, q.
wow!!! everything is possible
Excellent! The only real solution I have found to the Spacebar pause problem
