This addon was fine until it recently started asking for unnecessary permissions for personal data collection.

Was good while it lasted. Smart move really, as less people will be using it, thus lowering monthly costs, but more people will start paying for it. The greed is crazy nowadays.

the popup somehow also evaded my uBo filters 7 times before it stayed gone.

i really should not have updated this shit.

Screw your datamining

Works alright enough, does what it should and nothing else (so far). Wondering if there's a way to stop it requesting new permissions, for good. I don't want or need to keep having to click Cancel, and keep having the warning symbol on the menu button on every relaunch of the browser. I shouldn't have to repeat the dissent to having my data collected.

This is a datamining extension with persistent user IDs that track all of your YT browsing activity. I would remove it. It's not worth it at that point.

Sad. Was a good extension but now they got greedy and want to gather your data. Why does this always happen? Every good thing ends, always...

Developer can say what he wants, but this is the beginning of the end no matter what. As soon as "personally identifying information, browsing activity, website content, website activity" exists, so does the value of the app for someone who wants that information.

I hardly think it is review bombing when people give a formerly good app a bad rating. Sure you can ignore this new version and not update, but it is unavoidable on a new device.

All good things come to an end, and if it is getting too expensive now, the costs will only rise until he either sells or stops. the reasons don't matter, the intend doesn't matter, asking for our trust... we've all heard that song and dance before.

F

going to keep with the old version so firefox doesn't decide to snub your data, i did also hear that there was apparently premium stuff locked into the extension, which while i can understand to some extent, it is incredibly strange how it wasn't announced or even brought up for update info.

I'm also not comfortable accepting the new permissions, but I like seeing the dev actually respond to people here like a human being and not template or AI responses. Keep it up, and thanks for maintaining this extension.

What if I never accept the permissions?

This addon has a bug that prevents auto-translated CCs from working. It also has ridiculous monetization as of September 2026.

*Edited from 2 to 4 Stars after reading the Developers response. I see monetization in it's current state, that is in the manner that it is presented, as an issue regardless of the circumstances. I would return to using this addon if whenever I install it again I find that CCs have gotten fixed.

How is this still working? I thought recently youtube removed dislikes in their backend.

yep, deleting now that the floss project became enshittified premiumware
