I see a lot of YouTube, some can say too much. After years of using it, I have received a handful of browser extensions that completely change the experience, and I cannot use the platform without them.
YouTube clickbait is filled with material because the creators scramble to get more views. From misleading titles to Thumbnail, it is difficult to determine that the video you are watching will reach its promise. But how can you know if a video is worth watching before clicking on the play?
This is the place where TLDR (not very long; not read) Extension is useful. It is a chrome extension that removes the main ideas from any YouTube video, so you can see what has been covered and can decide if it is worth watching without wasting your precious time.
Once you install the extension, it adds a blue-end-white lightening button to the lower-right corner of your browser. You just need to go to YouTube, click on a video, and click on the TLDR button to get the summary of the contents of the video.

I immediately know if a YouTube video deserves my time, thanks for this free tool
Clickbait does not waste more time on thumbnail.
A sidebar shows a summary of the key points of the video at the top, followed by a segment of notable moments with the timestamp. It is easy to use. The extension supports English and 39 other languages, so if you are reading it, you are already covering. If you like to get a summary in a different language, you can change this setting to the settings page of the extension.
Certainly, YouTube has a feature dedicated to control the playback speed of the video. But while this feature is strong enough with a custom option for the rich selection and fine control of the lapse, it is not correct. When you change the playback speed of a video, it only affects that video. When you play the next video, the YouTube resets to normalize the playback speed.
If you like to play videos at a given playback speed, you get frustrated quickly by repeating the same adjustment again and again. So I use video speed controller to automatically handle it by enabling both of them. Remember the speed of playback And Force last saved speed In the settings of the extension. This gives you an adjustment button in the top left corner of the video, and you can click at any time to change the playback speed.
Should it be one that the ability to change playback speed using keyboard keys: S For decreasing speed and D To grow. In addition, you can choose how much speed increases or reduced when you use the keyboard shortcut (default 0.1). You can also reset the speed by using R The key at any time.
You can rwind or move forward using the keyboard shortcut, and just like the playback speed, you can set how much skipping. Video speed controller works on all sites that use HTML5 videos, so apart from YouTube, I also find it useful on other video sites.
When you watch videos on YouTube, the playback quality depends on the current status of your internet connection. If your internet experiences ups and downs, the platform automatically adjusts the playback quality for low resolutions to prevent buffering.
But you can disable this automatic adjustment on a video by manually adjusting the resolution through the settings provided. However, YouTube leaves a lot to be desired because your choice will not remain in the follow -up video.
And this is the one that receives YouTube Auto HD extension. You only need to set your favorite resolution once, and the extension will automatically apply it to all videos. If a video was not shot in the quality of your choice, the extension automatically loads the video in the best available option. When this is the best option available, you can also enable a tuggle to use YouTube’s 1080p premium quality, but you will need YouTube premium membership.
The decision to hide the count of dislikes on YouTube video is one of the worst and most controversial changes he has made in recent memory. This is one of the many ways YouTube has worsened. As a person who depends on the dislike, whether a video is worth watching, it is difficult, especially with a stable increase in AI-Janit and Clickbait content on the platform.
But the reversal is to return YouTube dislikes. It acts like an attraction – you install it, and you will see the dislike again. If you were already watching a video before installing the extension, you have to load the page again. And when you go on any video on YouTube moving forward, you will see the count of dislikes because this was before the platform was selected to hide these numbers.
Is it just me, or are the segment sponsored on YouTube for long and longer? See, I accept that the creators are hired and are worth earn from their efforts. However, it has reached a point where sponsored sections have become long, a few minutes or more. Or worse than, I have come in a video where the segment is longer than the actual video content (yes, it!) Or a video of a manufacturer in a video less than 20 minutes includes several sponsored sections.
I pay for YouTube to get rid of its rapidly annoying advertisements and enjoy other YouTube premium allowances. As a payment member, YouTube gives you move on Some of these sections button to release, but there is no way to do so automatically. In addition, it is not as strong and reliable, so it cannot save you all the time.
It has sponsored my Go-Two Extension to trim these segments. It leaves automatically sponsored classes, so you will not need to feed with your keyboard or trackpad to do so. This progression marks the sponsored sections in Green on the bar so that you know ahead of which part of the video.
Sponsorblock is powerful and can get rid of other common YouTube annoyance such as self-consciousness, membership begging, intro, preview, last card, and more. In music videos, it can automatically release non-music parts.
Annexer for YouTube is an all-in-one extension packed with a lot of functionality that improves your normal YouTube experience. The extension increases almost every part of the YouTube interface – from video player to volume control appearance.

I will not see Netflix without these 5 chrome extensions
Netflix is ​​great; We all know that. But these chrome extensions make Netflix even better.
The first feature I like is its picture-in-picture mode support, which pops up a small player that you can use to watch videos while doing other tasks. There is also a mini player that displays a mini version of the video you are watching when you scroll down to read the comments.
Under the presence of extension under adaptation settings, you can twist the number of row, video, shorts and posts; Hide elements such as chat, related videos, shorts and comments; Automatically apply video filters from the latest to the oldest, and more.
When installed, you get an additional bar of control just below the normal playback control, from which you can loop, increase the video volume, inform the information card and the end card, and expand the video to cover the more screen.
Even this is a screenshot option to capture specific moments in the video without distracting elements such as playback control. In short, there is a lot that you can do with this an extension.
These extensions feel YouTube like a whole new platform, which is why I never use the platform on my laptop and desktop. Most of these extensions work without any trick, so you can enjoy the benefits without toggling any setting option.
