The latest update requires permission to "Download files and read and modify the browser’s download history". Why does the stateless functionality offered by this extension suddenly require such a strong intrusive permission? Unless, this extension was bought over by some greedy business that wants to collect and sell your data. Just find another extension at this point.
Edit (post dev's response): It's still potentially unsafe in the event that a future update may obfuscate the code, since Mozilla does not require add-ons to be opensource. Since I do not require the export functionality, there should not be any obligation for me to accept the new permission. Currently, it is not so. Also, there are other extensions like uBlock Origin that allows syncing config (custom filter entries) without requiring any download or browsing history permissions.
I am not questioning your commitment to remain open-source, but with this permission, there is a permanent opportunity for you and your successor (if and when) to malpractice.

发布于 1 天前The extension now requires download permissions in order to be able to export user's config file. It is not used for anything else besides that single action and there is no malicious intent behind it (and never will be). YouTube Redux is open source and all code changes can be verified in its GitHub repository.
Edit in response to your edit: Your concerns are absolutely justifiable. While at this moment it's a "trust me bro" situation, extension takeovers do happen and this is indeed a security risk for users. That said without delay I will be making this permission optional as well as allowing the user to save the config manually if that permission is denied. Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the scare!

发布于 15 小时前I'm remaking that part to be optional or not required at all. Update soon!
While it's being reworked I've reverted the update so v3.8.4 is the newest available. - 评分 5 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 16412083, 21 小时前

One big problem though, some days ago (forgot when), the shuffle button in the Playlist (When watching from the playlist, next to the loop button) is just gone. Turned the extension on & off to confirm, and yes the extension itself is the problem. Turning settings on & off did not fix the issue

- Seems like a pretty cool extension, I mainly am trying it out because I dislike YouTube's new, gigantic thumbnails on the home page and subscriptions page. YouTube Redux fixes that problem on the home page, but not in the Subscriptions page as far as I can tell. It *does* reduce the size of the thumbnails, which is nice, but only to a medium size, and there are still only 3 columns. Having that feature work on the Subscriptions page would be awesome, so I hope it is added at some point. On the totally positive side, I'm not seeing ANY shorts thumbnails now, which is fantastic!

发布于 3 个月前Number of video thumbnails per row will work on the Subscriptions page with the upcoming update, thanks! - 评分 1 / 5来自 OceanCradle, 3 个月前Downloaded this to fix the new YT layout (grid size) and while there is an option for it, it just does nothing.
