Thank you SOO much for this addon. I've used scroll wheel volume control on YouTube for literally almost two decades now. It baffles me that this has never become a native option. And my Tampermonkey script broke today with a Firefox update.

YouTube has a new interface, and it broke my other extension that had this feature. But this one works great. Glad it exists.

Is Youtube Volume Scroll 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 Volume Scroll requires a few sensitive permissions. 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 Volume Scroll is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
