Recensioni per PocketTube: Youtube Subscription Manager
PocketTube: Youtube Subscription Manager di Dima Nabok
Recensione di Tom
The idea is great, but the actual functioning is poor because it breaks some behaviors in YouTube and I had to uninstall this extension because of it.
1. When doing a search, the results page sometimes gets stuck refreshing the results, basically the results are caught in a loop of refreshing over and over so you can't click on anything.
2. When scrolling videos, YouTube uses lazy loading, but with this extension enabled, the videos do not load and it's just blank, therefore video results beyond the page break fail to load.
3. There are glitches when loading your main subscription feed page, things like shorts showing up then disappearing, despite what option you have selected. In my usage, I have shorts disabled, however they continue to show up sometimes on page loads.
4. The actual loading time of pages on YouTube is noticeably slower, this is most likely due to this extension using additional resources and causing it to lag.
5. Not the extensions fault but a byproduct is this will make your YouTube mobile app experience worse because your subscriptions are now all together, so if you use this extension to subscribe and be able to organize them where you wouldn't otherwise subscribe, then your lists are useless on mobile.
6. I don't appreciate the advertising for your extension upgrades. Yes, we understand you'd like to make revenue but let users show/hide these options and once they make their choice do not advertise this again. IF users want to upgrade, they can do so later on their own terms.
Again, it's a good idea but hopefully YouTube will adopt collections natively (as they have done beta testing with select users) and this will then be able to be used on your account across all platforms and devices.
The main feature I use is the subscription categories and the ability to hide shorts, once YouTube adopts this it will be great. Hopefully this extension will inspire YouTube to release collections to all users and feed options such as hiding shorts.

3. It's expected behavior because it uploads all pages and next hides videos by filters. If you want to use it without disappearing(seamless experience), you should use feed mode https://youtu.be/r4iX53Qg2sE?t=233
4. It takes some time, but it's insignificant, and no one complains. Again I think it's related to conflict with something another extension.
5. It doesn't make it worse because PocketTube has Android and iOS, you can find it in the official store.
6. I want my users to know about every extension upgrade, what it's, and how to use it. I'm not going to make a useless update that no one use. It's part of the extension, and every update has free options. Also, you have a close button, so why not close it and just a little appreciate the work behind the extension? But it's really stupid to use my extension and don't see special videos for updates. Every update takes time to implement and produce tutorial videos.
PocketTube is not only about the collection. It has a bunch of different functions like Deck, filters, sorts, mark as watched, and more which you can on my YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@PocketTubeHQ/videos
I have been developing the extension for over 6 years and would say unfortunately only ads revenue inspires YouTube to implement features.

- Valutata 1 su 5di Trevan Haskell, 7 giorni faRecent changes made my subscriptions page near-useless and super slow to load. I recommend "YT Tweaks" instead.

pubblicato il 6 giorni faThere was no update on the extension side. "Most relevant' is a new YouTube feature, it's still not available for every account, and they're testing it.
If you don't like it you can hide it by uBlock or other extensions, but it's not our changes. - Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 19762078, 7 giorni fa

pubblicato il un mese faWhat do you mean? Please send screenshot to support at hello@pockettube.io- Valutata 5 su 5di sazandorable, 2 mesi faLove it, so convenient!
My only problem is that it regularly slows down Youtube dramatically, but this is solved by turning the extension off -- even just a second before turning it back on. No settings are lost.
When it's not doing that, I'm not noticing any issue, it works great and is so helpful to organise my favourite channels by theme and check on the latest releases by topic!
-Edit to reply-
Right after I posted this, I had the same issue, but this time turning PT off didn't solve it... I don't use any other YT extension so at this point it might be an issue with YouTube itself lmao.Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 2 mesi faIt's weird. I can't reproduce the behavior. Try to disable other extensions you use, maybe it's some sort of conflict. Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 2 mesi faOs grupos básicos para organizar assinaturas são gratuitos. Se você quiser recursos adicionais, precisa se tornar um apoiador. Atualizar a extensão sempre que o YouTube faz alterações internas leva tempo.
Além disso, a decisão de manter alguns recursos para a versão do PocketTube no Patreon foi tomada para garantir a viabilidade da versão gratuita a longo prazo.- Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 19625111, 3 mesi fadoes its job perfectly, thanks for this extension developers.

pubblicato il 3 mesi faWhat extension version are you using? Is there some specific browser settings, because it's not reproducible on the default Firefox.- A must have add-on for me
I recommend this add-on to my Friends and Family they have only good things to say about this add-on. The only thing on my wish list for this add-on would be to be able to move it further up the side bar. Currently it sits at the bottom of the side bar and I have to scroll down to reach it witch is manageable but I would prefer if it wear always within clicking reach to save effort.

pubblicato il 3 mesi faThanks, glad to hear it! Yes, you can move our block to the top by clicking on the arrow under the block. Please check the part of the video tutorial: https://youtu.be/r4iX53Qg2sE?si=gJUMx9q_-Wag-R6R&t=226 - Valutata 5 su 5di Kerry Fisher, 4 mesi fa
- Valutata 1 su 5di scuabduude, 4 mesi faGood concept, bad delivery. I enjoy the pockets I could make; however, it locks up my YouTube every time. After disabling the add-on, everything works again, but the ugly YouTube subscription panel is unmanageable. Please fix.

pubblicato il 4 mesi faThere are no issues on the extension side. I suspect you have a conflict with other extensions. Try to disable it. Usually, it happens when you use some type of adblockers, YouTube doesn't like it and hides parts of the UI.
