User Reviews

Users find the add-on useful for searching YouTube comments and saving time when it works, and it has been a strong Firefox option. However, reliability is a major issue: frequent failures, crashes, and slow performance; incomplete functionality (no replies, no quick navigation); inconsistent filtering; and perceived neglect. Overall, it can be effective but is not dependable across videos or searches.

Pros

Saves time by helping me quickly find relevant YouTube comments.
Works as advertised and returns matches when the extension is functioning.
One of the few Firefox options for YouTube comment search, making it a go-to solution for Firefox users.
The core search capability can find relevant comments even for vague terms.

Cons

Not working reliably: frequent errors like 'Ups, something went wrong' and periods of no results.
Crashes and unstable performance, with slow/clunky loading in many cases.
Does not show replies to found comments and cannot jump to or reply to them directly.
Inconsistent filtering: sometimes highlights matches without narrowing results or shows 0 comments.
Maintenance appears lacking, with reports of abandonment and outdated updates.

Recent reviews

This addon does not find a single comment from me.

Is YouTube Comment Search Safe?

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.

YouTube Comment Search 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 Add-ons Store, 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.

YouTube Comment Search has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
