User reviews

Users appreciate 'Tweaks for YouTube' for its extensive customization, speed, and helpful features like keyboard shortcuts and video playback controls. Many praise its improvements over other add-ons and its ability to fix Youtube interface annoyances. However, common requests include adding toolbar icons for easier feature access, improving theater mode memory, and providing more detailed video/audio settings. Some limitations remain in overriding YouTube's default thumbnail grid and playlist controls. Overall, the add-on is favored for enhancing YouTube usability with a user-centric approach.

Pros

Highly customizable with many useful features like custom keyboard shortcuts and sound settings.
Improves YouTube usability by fixing issues such as thumbnail sizes and allowing control over autoplay in playlists.
Lightweight and fast, with fewer bugs compared to other popular YouTube add-ons.
Includes unique features like subtitle search, zen mode, Shorts integration, and convenient right-click actions.
Good compatibility with other extensions and helpful for users wanting more control over YouTube's interface.

Cons

Lacks some desired UI icons for quick access to features like audio boost, screenshot, and playlist autoplay, requiring keyboard shortcuts instead.
Does not remember theater mode settings consistently, sometimes needing an additional extension to manage it.
Some users desire more granular video and audio customization options such as codec preferences, saturation control, and overlay interaction zones.
Limited ability to overcome YouTube's default thumbnail display restrictions, with some placeholders still appearing and black spaces around thumbnails.

FANTASTIC PROGRAM. Seriously. I only got it to -ensure- that subtitles stay in the dang lower bottom where they BELONG. But the quick controls using the mouse (I have enabled in full-screen), as well as the ability to alter the time it takes for the controls to disappear, and having them not appear with any mouse movement but when you actually point in those regions.. it is fantastic. It makes youtube browsing a blast!

Awesome addon, the only thing I'd like to have is to exclude Youtube Music from some settings. I like to prevent the playlist autoplay on Youtube, but not on Youtube Music, for example
