- Absolutely fantastic!

- Honestly, just fantastic. Less useless buttons, no more shorts, just wonderful. One of the few things I WOULD give a higher rating if I could. Some suggestions though: 1) Idk if it's possible, but a way to disable the "Collaborators" idiocy youtube implemented 2) Option to hide members videos 3) Option to remove duplicate buttons that pop-up when going fullscreen

- Perfect extension! Simply the BEST! I really hope the auther can put the 'X' button back to the history page, so the users won't need to go through the three dots menu to remove an item from watched history.

- Tried a few before, this is the only one I recommend. Use the tweaks to get Youtube working the way YOU want, NOT the way youtube wants. (if paying rent to youtube is not an option)

- This is actually the best extension for YT, been using this since 2023 but I decided to give it a review since I fw it that much!!!! Love from a real user that's not a bot🤖

- This is the best extension for YouTube-friendly use. However, it has the worst terms of service I've ever seen. The extension constantly adds new terms that users must accept. After each automatic update this extension on Chrome browser, the "permittion terms" are reset to the "before acceptance" state. As a result, the extension automatically disables itself either on its own or via Google Chrome. When I go to the tabs that I am using. In order to copy and paste my chatting into the Word files. Those tabs auto refreshing once, which causes me to lose three hours of chat data with 4 people across other tabs on another website, this data lost leading to a very bad user experience. now - uninstalled.

- I wish I could give it more stars. I like to play guitar and use this extension to slow down the videos. It makes it easier to study! I haven't encountered any problems with this extension. It's perfect!

- Important Update: Hey everyone! Due to recent changes on YouTube, the extension now asks for permission to access www.youtube-nocookie.com to fix playback issues with the Pop-up Player. This ensures videos load correctly from the www.youtube-nocookie.com site (owned by YouTube). If you don’t use the Pop-up Player, you can safely remove this permission — all other features will work as expected. To do so, open the Extensions Manager (chrome://extensions), then under Enhancer for YouTube™ > Details > Site Access, uncheck the permission. That’s it! Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused while Chrome temporarily disabled the extension. Thanks for your understanding, and happy watching!

- -The extension is losing a star and will keep losing one star each month they do not calm the heck down with popups and interfering with my viewing of videos- Twice this week they have sent a popup after I notice my videos are suddenly stuttering because it is doing yet another update. Just now they told me it was disabled because of new permissions. What permissions changed? Doesn't tell me. A couple of days ago they sent me a popup just to tell me they updated it. Okay. Thanks, special little guy. You can run along and play now and be sure to wear your helmet, Mr. Developer. I am trying to watch a video. UPDATE- Just had another popup redirect when I attempted to open a new video in a new window. They took it upon themselves to open and entire tab to beg for money. Uninstalling this weirdo created nonsense.

- Wouldn't use Youtube without this extension but im noticing the scroll wheel speed increase function is still broken. Only the top half of the icon works and only sometimes. It was flawless a couple of weeks ago, not sure which change has broken it but even for the update that just got pushed, it's still inconsistent for me. I'm not giving a bad review because it's a great extension when it works properly. Just bug reporting :)

- love this, cant go back to default yt without it

- Can you update it so it don't use the old ui assets (icons I mean) and uses the new one. Because for some odd reasons the default theme is not updated or you change the code that if the dark theme or custom theme is not ticked it uses just the default original/official theme (that updates also the ui as well). I cannot get why they defaults to a completely seperate theme (from the extension) instead of using the default theme. I mean it automatically apply a custom theme that looks like the original theme of youtube but it will not update as is a custom theme.

- Great Extension. Works great and they do a great job of keeping up with all the changes Utube makes. One suggestion after they moved the recommended videos and the comments. Can we get a "Jump to comments" button?

- Latest update seems to be using too much memory. Video playback becomes very fuzzy and stutters. This also lags the whole PC. I love this extension but the latest update really do be borking things up.

- this is a fantastic extension however, since the october 23rd update, the playback speed scroll on the control bar has frequently stopped working properly could this be due to incorrect coordinate specifications? if you are reading this review please fix it

- A too advanced tool to use. It has a host of different options to control the various aspects of a youtube video which an everyday user requires but the working of the extension is a bit complicated and less user-friendly. If the developers can edit its design a bit to make it look comfortable and easily accessible or attach a more proper detailed and enabling demo use manual when we start to use it, the tool would prove to a grand success.

- Moved from another youtube extension to this one. Appreciate the lack of constant ads! It also works and does a lot. Only thing I miss is the ability to change the sound with my mouse scroll wheel. Maybe there is an option. There is so many options. It's great. Thank you and love the work. (Edit)Just found the menu for the mouse scroll wheel to control the volume. Keep up the great work please!
