scott mullis (ID: 0000004758657710) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 04/29/2024 Is very nice to watch with friends as you can both pause easily without issue, however swapping videos can be frustrating as it desyncs and won't show the next video to friends, forcing you to remake the party in a new tab. Edit: This Extension has progressively gotten worse over time.
