THIS CHROME DOWLOADER EXTENSION IS JUNK. THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE VERY POOR AND VERY GENERAL WITH NO MEANS OF CONFIRMATION THAT THE VIDEO IS ACTUALLY DOWNLOADED. AS IT SAID, I "STARTED THE PLAYBACK TO MAKE SURE IT WOULD GRAB THE RIGHT VIDEO". BUT THERE IS NO PLACE THAT SHOWS THE DOWNLOAD IS ACTUALLY TAKING PLACE. AFTER AN HOUR OF THIS NONSENSE, THERE WAS NOTHING IN MY COMPUTER'S "DOWNLOADS" AND NOTHING IN THE "VIDEOS" FILE OR THE DESKTOP. IT JUST A WASTE OF TIME. AND NO, I AM NOT GOING TO PAY FOR ANY JUNK.

I could download any resolution above 96p form Reddit. This is a low bar, but most downloaders can't even do this, so this one gets 5/5.
