Review summary

Multiple reviews report severe performance problems after installing Improve YouTube!, including browser lag, page freezes, and high resource usage that can render YouTube and the browser unusable. Settings issues are also common: the settings panel may become inaccessible, and saved settings or watched lists may not be retained. Some users note memory-related crashes on certain setups. While some features (e.g., fit-to-window, customization) are valued, reliability problems dominate the feedback, prompting many to remove the extension.

2026-08-13	Re*****	randomly causes youtube to stop working due to "connection not secure" with the only way to fix it being to clear cookies and site data for youtube also since i started using this add on firefox will randomly freeze up and will often crash and forcefully close all windows, i've never had this happen with any other firefox add on just this one so for those two reasons this add on is kinda unusable due to how buggy it is and how annoying those bugs are due to how often they happen, over all the add on is fine would actually be really good if the issues were fixed but pretty much everything if not everything this add on does can be found in other more stable add ons that don't randomly brake youtube or firefox
