User reviews
Unfortunately this extension also captures every time you hit the spacebar between words while trying to type a comment. If there was a toggle to ignore textbox inputs then it would be a 5* for sure. Still giving it 4* because, for better or worse, it does do exactly what it says on the tin.
If you never comment on YT videos then this is the extension for you. My hunt, however, continues...
