This is how the YouTube scrubber should be.
love it. any plans to port it to firefox? thank you
amazing extension
When a video is very long and my bad internet can't load enough to go past the circle it's nice to know how much is loaded behind the circle. Youtube should bring in this developer if they can't do this stuff on their own, unless it was intentional which means they'll need a whole lot of changes in the company to combat stupidity.
I like it, YouTube just can't stop unnecessarily changing stuff.
The result is somewhat different from the original: the old scrubber shows with a *transition*. Is there any way you could add that?
GOATED EXTENSION!!!!! F Yourself Google, and YouTube for making the most heinous decisions. You are starting to have a downfall.
The best extension for youtube.
