| 2024-10-04 |  | | en | Quietly controls YT's firing off all over the place. Seems as good on Opera, Brave, and Edge ...and Firefox! Many thanks to the developer. |
| 2024-10-02 |  | | en | It doesn't work, unfortunately. The latest version of macOS, the latest version of Chrome. I installed the plugin, but after the video ends, the next one automatically starts playing, meaning nothing has changed in the behavior of the default player. |
| 2024-09-09 |  | | es | Es increíble que YouTube DAÑA (por poner una palabra bonita) algo en el funcionamiento de la web, y tengo que recurrir a una extensión para arreglarlo. Funciona tal cual dice el nombre. Ni mas, ni menos. Hace su trabajo. Es una manía la de estar conectado. ¿Termina un video? Anda, toma otro, no respires, no pienses.... consume (y yo solo quiero verme un video de mi Watch Later) |
| 2024-08-13 |  | | ru | Очень удобно, когда хочешь посмотреть только одно видео. Я пользуюсь функцией "Удалить просмотренные" и поэтому мне нужно, чтобы лишние видео не были отмечены просмотренными |
| 2024-06-16 |  | | en | Was working well a few days ago, but stopped working now. I'm not sure if it's a youtube update, or a browser update that did it. |
| 2024-06-16 |  | | en | Excellent! Now I can continue watching videos without having to load the playlist every time. I don't think they've tested to see how bad it is to watch a video when the playlist has ~1k videos. I'm not sure how many are actually added in the playlist next to the video, but it's enough to freeze the entire page (except the video) so that I can't interact with anything for a couple seconds. |
| 2024-03-31 |  | | en | sadly it does not work for me. its not removing the &list=WL from the URL. I use vivaldi though, so its barely a mainstream browser, even if it technically supports webstore extensions |
| 2024-03-21 |  | | en | Thanks for this, Jeff! It works on both Chrome & Brave, though on Brave it only works if you open the Watch Later in a new tab instead of from clicking the Watch Later in the sidebar. Edit: it works fine on Brave if you disable Brave Shields |
| 2024-02-16 |  | | en | THANK YOU, for doing what YouTube should have been doing 15 years ago |
| 2024-02-09 |  | | en | Doesn't work. |
