Es muy buena, cumple excelente con su función. Me gusta, pero lo doy 3 estrellas porque tiene problemas conviviendo con otras extensiones. Cuando la desactivo empiezan a funcionar, ej PocketTube: Youtube PlayList Manager, y YouTube Playlist Duration

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Multiselect for YouTube™ requires very minimum permissions.
