Vladyslav Serdiuk (ID: 00000090f2b5d496) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/14/2023 Why do I have to press the button every time? Why does yandex browser BY DEFAULT has auto-floating videos WITHOUT THE NEED TO PRESS THE CURSED BUTTON. But all these millions floating youtube extensions require me to press the button? I don't get it!
