Short description
Replace Youtube comments with Reddit comments or view the Reddit comments of any webpage. Allows users to see timestamped comments as they watch YouTube
Full summary

This browser extension allows users to replace the comment section on YouTube videos with the comments from the corresponding Reddit post. It also allows users to view the Reddit post and comments associated with the current URL in the extension popup.

By default YouTube comments will be replaced with the relevant Reddit comments. YouTube comments can still be viewed by clicking the YouTube icon located at the top right of the comments section.

The extension icon will turn blue when the current web page has been submitted to Reddit, and clicking on it will open a popup where users can view the posts and comments.

Comet contains no ads, collects no data and signup is not required.

GitHub Repository: https://github.com/z0ccc/comet

Note: This extension is not affiliated with Reddit or YouTube.

Features:

  • Pause to persist a comment
  • Hover over a comment to see its replies
  • Click the Comments icon in the video bar to toggle comments on/off
  • Click on a comment to open a new tab with that comment at the top of the comment section (useful for replying to comments)
  • Use your own YouTube Data API key (pin the extension to your toolbar and open the popup to access)

9/30/23 update: You must now create and enter your own YouTube Data API key. The extension will default to use my key but YouTube has cut down my quota drastically so the extension will probably not work if you don't use your own :(
