Sort By: Oldest Chrome extension brings back the beloved YouTube "Sort by: Oldest" functionality, allowing users to easily filter videos by publication date, including shorts. Originally developed to provide this option after YouTube removed it, the extension now remains available for users who prefer this sorting method.

Version 1.3.0 introduces a customizable animation screen that enhances the user experience; this feature can be toggled on or off in the extension's settings. Although YouTube has officially restored the button, this extension continues to offer value for personalized use and sorting through shorts. For more details, visit the GitHub repository.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Sort By: Oldest requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
