It works

Kaa Sheng, 2024-10-24

With the login issue fixed, now it works frikkin beautifully. For example, my 1,500 video rocknroll playlist, after the couple seconds for the playlist search to load, it works like a charm. YouTube is lagging like a MF right now, but I don't think it's this extensions' fault.

Installed ok, but when I typed something, it did nothing. I even opened my playlist, and...nothing, even using a unique word from the third video in the list.
