posted 3 months agoThank you for the feedback. Low performance and thread freezing are caused by using incompatible extensions made for modern YouTube, as advised multiple times in the News and General Discussion channel.
We cannot provide support for 3rd party extensions, SponsorBlock now supports V3 and people seem to be happy with the functionality provided.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19458972, 5 days agoI'm not even kidding, I made a Firefox account just to review this. Never have I enjoyed a Firefox extension so much. First off, for nostalgic purposes, if you grew up watching Youtube as a kid from 2010 to 2013 like I did you should feel right at home. It's nearly an exact copy and actually implements some of the better modern features too. I have been DREAMING of an extension that converts modern Youtube from the crappy pre-2017 redesign to the original. And it's fantastic. Most importantly, PERFORMANCE IS INCREDIBLE. I have no idea how they did it. Performance shot up by at least 50% on my gaming PC, and around 30 to 40% on my old Macbook Pro. It's actually usable on older machines now. No need for Invidious which is hit or miss. The website is snappy now.
We need more extensions like these for major websites. It is incredible. I miss how fast the old web used to be.
If you are looking for a drastic speed increase for Youtube and an (arguably) better layout with some nostalgia, install this. Now. It's amazing. Devs, never stop working on this. You guys are awesome. - Rated 5 out of 5by JulioGouvea200, 11 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Jare, a month agoAbsolutely goated add-on. I thought it was nigh impossible, or at least extremely tedious, to do this (and perhaps it was lol).
YouTube's massive redesign in 2017 was severely disappointing and I've been dying to find a functioning add-on for Mozilla that reverts YT back to any of its former UIs.
More than three large thumbnails fit on the homepage at a time, lack of shorts, generally more functional, etc!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Kelasgre, 2 months agoWhere is the “Not interested” button? It is impossible to maintain the flow of recommendations without the option.

Completely customisable from headers and font, to returning dislikes.
Gamelogging has been discontinued tho.Developer response
posted 3 months agoThank you for the feedback. Gamelog is still available and prints internal logs, however, the purpose of it was to make critical errors treatable using an interface, which sadly cannot be assured. - Rated 4 out of 5by cocoa, a year agoPretty nice extension, it was working really nice until it just randomly would pop up the " error has occurred" page whenever you click on a video. Please fix this.

posted 3 months agoThank you for the feedback. V3 brings back December 2013 YouTube layout, you can use userscript or userstyles on top of it to get the desired interface, however, this is not planned to be integrated.
