"YouTube Playback Continuity" is a handy Firefox Add-on that enhances your YouTube watching experience by automatically saving your playback position, without the need for login. Whether you're watching a tutorial, a movie, or any other video, this add-on ensures that you can pick up right where you left off, even if you navigate away from the page or close your browser.

Key Features:
• Automatic Timestamp Saving: The add-on automatically saves your current playback position every 5 seconds once you’ve watched for more than 10 seconds, so you never have to worry about losing your place.
• Seamless Resuming: When you return to a video, it checks for a saved timestamp and resumes playback from that exact moment, making it easy to continue watching without hassle.
