sdfsdfsdf fdsfsdfsd, 2025-04-26Ben YouTube'daki Shorts videoları gizlemek için kullanıyorum, gayet güzel çalışıyor. Bunun yanında başka özellikler de barındırıyor içerisinde, çok kolay şekilde aktif ya da deaktif edilebiliyor. Gördüğüm kadarıyla da performans konusunda sorun yaratmıyor. Bu güzel uzantı için teşekkürler.
