Michael Hodges (ID: 000000458d9d2a57) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/11/2021 This extension hugely improved Youtube and is something Youtube should have implemented years ago. It is such a great change to have and I can barely imagine trying to use Youtube without it anymore. Seriously the best extension that I have ever used besides adblock.
