YouTube Miniplayer Blocker Firefox

YouTube Miniplayer Blocker

Automatically closes the YT miniplayer when it pops up.

Features & Capabilities

Included in the new Dopamine-FreeYT extention (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dopamine-free-youtube/)

Youtube for some reason decided it would be a great idea to have the bad YT mobile minplayer feature and make it even worse by putting it on desktop. This addon is here to stop that because YT couldn't be bothered to make it a disableable feature.

TLDR: This addon automatically closes the YT miniplayer when it pops up.

It works well but I had trouble finding this extension because I was searching for youtube, not YT. Nobody knows what YT is. Consider changing the name to Youtube Miniplayer Blocker or similar. I found you can do the same thing as this extension just by blocking the address www.youtube.com##ytd-miniplayer
