only now i realize how severely you have betrayed me! you have become the very thing you were supposed to protect me from, so this is how Julius felt when his closed friend stabbed him in the back...

Basically, I can't imagine my day without this add-on/ extension / plugin. I originally got this extension a few years ago just to stop YouTube from "auto-playing" videos every time I opened a video in a new tab... Absolutely love instant volume control and repeat features. It also helps to stop high CPU usage while watching videos.... yes, there are some issues, but I think the DEVs will fix it. Thanks guys, this is very useful tool. I'm definitely gonna suggest it to everyone I know, keep up the good work!

This used to be a very good extension that I used constantly and was seriously considering donating some money towards as I had some spare funds instead of living paycheck to paycheck for a change... Then the stupid constant popups, and new tabs regarding a browser update that doesn't exist started... So instead I am looking for a new Youtube extension and disabling Magic Actions in all browsers I use (Brave, Firefox, Opera GX)... As soon as I find a suitable replacement for the features I use, I will be flat out uninstalling Magic Actions and not looking back, until then I will only be enabling it when I need it... The developer has lost my trust in regards to the extension...
