BettrComments is a brand new way of expressing yourself on YouTube. It comes with some really awesome features.

BettrComments also addresses the numerous issues that comes with the new update Google implemented on the new comment system for YouTube. It was received heavy backslash, due to its lack of spam filters, disposal of the top comments system and requirement for using a Google+ account.

It remedies all these issues that the new comment is notorious for, and tries to mimic and even improve on the old comment system, by adding these following features:

  • A report abuse button
  • A top comment section
  • Character limit

This app sucks! It's the opposite of what I'm looking for. I want to DISABLE REPLIES. It enables replies on youtube. There's nothing "silly" about the disable reply feature they idiotically took away. Why do so many people think innocent posters deserve to be trolled? Get a clue. Being able to DISABLE relies will make commenting better. Not this crap!!

Ignore my rating because I couldn't see if it worked or not. Chrome blocks the script and it won't let me load the script no matter how many times I clicked load the unsafe script. Does not matter anymore since I cancomment finally for some reason.

This has its goods and bads. What this extension really needs are some options and customizability. Pros: -Bob filter (very useful) -Profanity filter Cons: -Comment system is very buggy and does not show all comments -Comment text is big and there is no way to change the size -Comment usernames are only orange and there is no way to change the color -Profile pictures do not show up in comments -No option to see what a spam comment actually says -No way to disable scroll bar -No "All Comments" button, so it can be annoying to look through comments
