This extension seems good at first but when you click on search, the videos on the recommended flash for a split second this entirely defeats the purpose. Hopefully this issue gets resolved.
why did u make it subscription based. internet is free to use i just ripped it now with chat gpt and made own thats working for free. like .. just why do people make paid extentions. jesus. have fun man/girl whoever idono
私の知る限りもっともシンプルでスッキリとしたレイアウトでYoutubeを視聴出来ます。また大変使いやすくて愛用しています。レガシーユーザーとしてディスカウントを受けれた事もありProを購入して利用をはじめました。 そして、お願いがあるのですが、もし可能であればVivaldiブラウザでの利用も可能にして頂けるととても有難いです。 Vivaldiブラウザはタイルという機能で複数のページを一つのウインドウで閲覧することが出来る為、常用のブラウジングとして使用している為です。 また、そういった環境でYoutubeライブチャットでの視聴する時に動画を上部にしてチャットを下部に配置した視聴もします。出来るなら垂直レイアウトでもスッキリした画面での視聴したいと願っています。 良いアプリをありがとう。
Amazing.
Great extension, but Shorts are showing up in the "Video" section again...
great, developers this dosent work for live streamed vedios make it work toooo
best
best extension for productivety , use it otherwise its so good that in future its pro version will be obviously paid ....... so use it otherwise you gonna regret it
i hate youtube shorts, playables and erroneous posts. thanks.
it is brilliant extension , I can hide every distraction in youtube like attractice thumbnails , recommanded videos, home page. It is the best app I found for distraction free youtube. But shorts tab is biggest distraction of doom scrolling and it is the cause of attention span deficiency and nowadays it is a global pandemic of attention span deficiency. I know you developers also know about it , so please give an update that can hide shorts tab also . please provide lock settings also . thank you, I wish you grow exponentially and help billions of people.
