## Description

Comet is a user-friendly Chrome extension that enhances your browsing experience by displaying Reddit comments on YouTube videos and other webpages. Instead of relying on YouTube’s native comment section, Comet replaces it with the relevant Reddit discussion, providing richer and often more insightful conversations.

When you browse a webpage posted on Reddit, Comet's icon turns blue, allowing you to quickly access Reddit posts and comments through a convenient popup. Switching back to YouTube's original comments is effortless with a simple click. This extension respects privacy as it contains no ads, collects no data, and requires no signup.

Perfect for users who want to explore community opinions beyond traditional comment sections, Comet integrates Reddit discussions seamlessly into your everyday browsing.

## Review summary

Users find the add-on useful for viewing Reddit comments on videos and generally report it works well. Multiple reviewers warn it triggers Reddit rate-limiting (error 429), which can block Reddit browsing; disabling the add-on fixes this. Users also want it to be passive/by-request and have raised maintenance/update concerns.

### Pros

- Adds Reddit comments directly to YouTube and other webpages, making it easy to see discussions alongside content
- Reported to work well and function reliably by multiple users
- Helps surface Reddit discussions that some users find saner or more thoughtful than native YouTube comments

### Cons

- Triggers Reddit rate-limiting / error 429 (too many requests), blocking Reddit access when multiple tabs are opened — reported by several users
- Runs/acts by default and can be intrusive; users say disabling the add-on stops the problem (suggesting it shouldn’t be always-active)
- Maintenance concerns noted (users reported long periods without updates)
