| 2024-09-03 |  | | en | Killer extension, only complaint i've got is it doesn't always show up on the side the first time (may require refreshing tab) |
| 2024-09-02 |  | | en | This is the perfect solution to scroll comments while continue to watch videos! I always use the sidebar on videos with timestamps in the comments to skip beetween video chapters easily without the annoying "auto-return-to-the-top" at every click. Love it! |
