Summary

Simple extension that just takes every youtube link visible on the webpage. (Just scrapes the dom, nothing fancy)

Was built for facebook groups, unfortunately this is not a perfect solution, you must expand all comments otherwise the extension won't find all videos. So don't forget to click on 'View more comments' (Yeah, it's not ideal - but Facebook API for groups is not really accessible anymore for small devs, so here we are.)

Should be useful also for reddit, or any other website that has a bunch of youtube links.

Probably has bugs, won't always work etc... please report bugs :)
