Enhancer for YouTube™ is celebrated for adding valuable functionality and customization to YouTube, improving user experience with features like auto quality selection and ad blocking. Users appreciate its intuitive design and responsive developer support. However, some updates have temporarily broken certain features like ad blocking and control buttons, causing frustration. Small UI issues and feature requests remain, but overall it's highly recommended by users who frequently use YouTube through Edge.
