User reviews
doesn't do a thing.
Took a bit of a gamble downloading this as it didn't really have a ton of reviews and/or downloads- but that's just how much the new layout was bugging me. Still have no idea whether this is malicious or not as I've only had it installed for about ten minutes but it seems to be legit enough from what I can see.
I went immediately to YouTube to test it out, but it only like, half works. Thankfully, the video and side recommended are almost identical to how they were before. It feels so much better and less crowded for my screen- but the real issue is the comments and title. You can barely access them through this sort of sliver of room in the box below and it's really difficult to see anything through it. It makes the area underneath the video become virtually inaccessible. I can't describe it well, but it's very frustrating, to say the least.
This extension has a really helpful and good idea to it. I just really wish that that one feature wasn't an issue.
