| 2024-11-01 |  | | en | I met the developer in college and he showed me this extension, its soo good and convenient for listening/watching Youtube Vids and LOVE the visualizer for the EDM beats I collect. Awesome work! |
| 2023-12-11 |  | | en | It works fine when navigating vidoes of a channel and on sidebar, whoever it doesn't work on homepage and after searching for something. I love it when it works, but can't give it more than 3 stars |
| 2024-02-15 |  | | en | MOTHER OF GOD YOU'VE DONE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been asking YouTube for almost a YEAR now to PLEASE allow for me to view videos just like this without having to leave my homepage! Sometimes I just need to see a snippet or a clip without being bounced around the internet. When I stopped doing that, I had over 200 tabs open with nothing but YOUTUBE! Needless to say, Chrome was crashing left and right. This is an absolute LIFESAVER!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so very, very much!!!!!!!!!! Can we please get rounded corners on the screen? Edit: One thing: Please Please LET US COMMENT on the video with the box! It's so helpful! Also, I'd like to be able to set a custom color so I can choose the level and opacity of the grey that I'm looking for. Thank you again for this! Edit #2: I'm noticing that the Main YouTube page doesn't load videos the same way. Must be something to do with their coding. :-( Real bummer. But still, if I click one video and want to see more in the related section, they come right up. Hoping we can get either an official fix or have this working on the main page. Thank you so, so much again for your hard work! Really loving this!! |

| 2023-11-04 |  | | zh | At first I thought it was useless, but when I looked carefully I found that you need to click on the thumbnail to open the small window, and click on the title to be the normal action of YouTube. This design is very good and convenient! ! ! I hope there will be more entry methods, such as the middle mouse button or the right-click menu. At first I thought it couldn't be used on the subscription interface (https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions), but then I found out that just go to the background settings and turn off the mouse-over preview playback. 开始以为没用，仔细看发现需要点缩略图才是小窗口，点标题是youtube原来正常动作，这个设计很好很方便！！！希望有更多入口方式，比如鼠标的中建或者右键菜单等。 开始以为在订阅界面无法使用(https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions)，后以发现去后台设置把鼠标悬停预览播放关闭就行了。 |
