Rated 5 out of 5
by Sack, 3 years agoThis is a must have for someone that watches way too much YouTube. One thing I can suggest is to be able hide theater mode button. This is mostly a me problem I'm sure but I don't like theater mode and I find myself hitting it by accident sometimes. Also, I gotta say the like and dislike thing is confusing and now sure what it does. Deleted my bring back dislikes extension because I figured that is what it meant. Even if they aren't perfectly accurate, I think it would be nice for the users of at least this app to show dislikes
edit: Bumped from 4 to 5 since I now know you can block theater mode and I didn't not know the return YT dislikes was made difficult to implement for the reason stated. Great app that is a game changer and keep it up the work. You make the website I have the most hours on a lot better place.

posted 3 years agohi! thanks! but with 4 stars you decrease our visibility which is unfair / low already.
Something 'missing' here is rarely a reason for deductions as there are unlimited questions and ideas and we already do too much and have to tidy first. You can hide the theater view button at appearance: player: player controls buttons: view mode. And you can join us on GitHub to improve this linguistically. It is a good idea to integrate data like sponsorblock or rytd, who might be gatekeeping one way or another: https://github.com/Anarios/return-youtube-dislike#api-documentation. (If you spend an hour as a user that is a lot, still chances are people who spent 1000s of hours asked the same questions already. Thats why our Github appears on the front screen recently.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 20007710, 3 months agoGenerally amazing and great features. But I have 2 features I'd like to ask for. 1 being a separate grid size options for shorts and for the side bar on video player. While I'm not doom scrolling shorts, I'm sub'd to a few channels that put out great quality shorts that'd I'd like to view. Shorts are just really large compared to normal thumbnails. It's a balancing issue choosing between smaller thumbnails vs huge shorts. 2, Sidebar thumbnails feel huge after installing this extension. If you could include an option to reduce thumbnail size and increase video title space, that'd be great. But 2 is honestly just personal preference. I'm using Zen Browser if that makes any difference.

- Rated 1 out of 5by tokumei, 3 months agoWhile watching videos on YouTube, playback occasionally stops on its own. I am aware that the website has a feature that stops playback after 15 minutes of inactivity, but this seems to be a different issue.
In addition, videos sometimes stop playing when I switch to another browser tab. In those cases, playback resumes as soon as I return to the YouTube tab. The behavior is somewhat similar to the YouTube mobile app, where playback may stop when the screen or app is switched.
Both issues tend to occur near the beginning of a video rather than throughout the entire playback session.
I did not experience these problems while the add-on was disabled, so I suspect there may be some compatibility issue between the add-on and a web service or browser feature. - Rated 5 out of 5by felda9000, 3 months ago
