зачем этот огромный красный квадрат на каждом видео?!

Great extension! Please just shrink the Red Square since it visually very annoying. It is almost taking 1/6 of the space in the video preview on the right side of the video suggestion. It is useful to grey out a marked video, but not when you still have to watch it. So, shrink it by a lot, or make it more transparent, or just make red the actual white square and remove the big red square. Thanks!

My previous extension for this was just disabled by Chrome. This looks useful, but it will be incredibly tedious for me to go back and manually mark every video I have seen in the last few years as watched! (It isn't registering a single video as watched automatically.) Why can't this read when the video has a red bar under it, or if it has been liked, and automatically mark those as seen? Please? I couldn't find any other place to leave suggestions.
