- Rated 1 out of 5by Parkreiner, 3 hours agoThis 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.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17665620, 4 hours agoSad. 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...

- Rated 1 out of 5by thedemon44, 9 hours agoDeveloper 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 - Rated 1 out of 5by cyberchunk, 12 hours agogoing 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.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Devvie, 15 hours agoI'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.

posted 14 hours agoThanks! There are some template copy-pastas in my responses, but it's because most of the questions are the same. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20160828, 16 hours ago

posted 16 hours agoyou can keep the old version, or you can check "disable vote submission" in settings. (counting your like\dislike votes is the evil "personal data transfer" that I do.
But it's optional.- Rated 3 out of 5by Techstar01, 16 hours ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by lastw13, 17 hours agoThis 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.Developer response
posted 16 hours ago"ridiculous monetization" is 1 changelog message on browser restart in 5 years. You can close and never see again. I understand that it is annoying - and I sincerely wish this wasn't needed. But the price of running the extension exceeded the donations that it was receiving - so I decided to add a new optional feature - that some people might find useful - and these people will cover the costs for the rest of us. Hopefully.
Regarding CCs - I received 2 more similar reports, but so far I couldn't reproduce or fix it. Working on it. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19722038, 17 hours agoHow is this still working? I thought recently youtube removed dislikes in their backend.
