Want to read comments while you watch a YouTube video? Tired of scrolling or pausing just to read comments? We got you.

Comments now appear to the right of the video player, and suggested videos are moved underneath the video player.

Thank you so much for your comments! I do read all of them and appreciate your feedback.

Alter (ID: 0000000855c515cc) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/31/2024 Works good but one thing I dont like is when I click "show more replies" the page sends me down and I have to scroll up again to read the replies EDIT: Not sure if its just me, but its lagging my Youtube a lot

Roger Nobre (ID: 0000002e34038bbf) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/03/2024 thank you for the quick fix, browsing comments on PC without this is no longer possible for me lol

Ebrahim Khalil (ID: 000000d806071676) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/03/2023 Found it. Thanks for creating this. This is what I was finding.

Shubh pathroliya (ID: 000000452616b8a1) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 08/21/2023 Works pretty good but could be better if it had an off and on button. I feel that the option to go back to normal youtube should still be present in the extension

Elijah Chahine (ID: 000000941c12ae98) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/16/2023 This is great!! but one thing though, that I hope can be fixed. when I try to split screen and favour one app over YouTube like (Discord for example) the suggested videos seem to disappear, until I refresh the page. It isn't that big of a deal but if it could be fixed this will be absolutely perfect for me
