YouTube Tweaks by Pedro
Review by Greg Bomkamp
Rated 5 out of 5
by Greg Bomkamp, 7 months agoReally excellent extension!! This is the fourth extension that I've tried for enhancing YouTube and I really like this one.
I would love see configuration to make full-screen scrollable where in full-screen, you can scroll down to see the comments/other videos (instead of the 'other video suggestions')
Thank you so much for this extension!!
Edit: I originally had the following issues in my review, but im pretty certain this is a "me" issue with something breaking it on my end, not an actual issue with this extension. I'm leaving it below for posterity's-sake but i dont think its the extension at fault:
~~For the developer, I've noticed a few tiny issues that may/may not be known (and could also be something on my end):
1. For some reason, clicking on the video-space doesn't pause/unpause/fullscreen on double click/etc., I can only click on the interface buttons themselves
2. I have 'Right Click + Scroll Wheel' enabled for changing volume but holding the Right Click doesn't prevent the page from scrolling (see attached pastebin)~~
I'm very grateful for the Custom CSS/JS sections, I've added some small custom tweaks for resolving #2 and making the 'Back to Top' button better for myself. If you're interested: pastebin/BaVNLpss

posted 7 months agoHey Greg, thanks for taking the time to write this, but I can't replicate the issues #1 and #2.
What OS do you use? Does issue #1 only happens when the scroll volume feature is enabled? Did you try leaving only YT Tweaks enabled?
Please write to email: pedro.sou@icloud.com

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12894391, 15 days agoBrilliant extension that radically improves the youtube experience. Request: Segment the video player progress bar based on the chapters, the way youtube used to do until they removed this feature

- Rated 5 out of 5by Peluche-Nerv, a month agoPossibly the most feature-rich extension you can think of to fix Youtube's incredibly awful and rage-inducing design and functionality choices
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14230640, a month agoGreat extension that keeps Youtube usable in 2026.
Any chance we could get a hide toggle for Youtube Playables on the homepage? - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 19984926, a month agoI'd rate it higher only I can't remove the "Latest"/"most relevant" sections. If the next update can solve this, it's essentially perfect as an add-on
- Rated 5 out of 5by higgins1289, a month agoGreat extension. recent youtube update has massively increased the size of thumbnails for suggested videos in the sidebar. any chance of including an option to make them smaller? I cannot seem to find it if there is one.

- Rated 5 out of 5by ari, a month agoabsolute most goated ui tweaks addon for youtube. this + sponsorblock + ublock origin and you're set. the menu is splendidly organized and is very easy to use. you can customize almost every ui element. there's also hotkey support!! the themes are a nice bonus and they all look great.
i use it to:
1. hide shorts from everything except my subscriptions
2. redirect youtube homepage to subscriptions feed
3. make search results appear in a grid
4. hide all the clutter (explore, shorts, etc) from the sidebar
+ some other misc tweaks but those are the main ones.
i've used many other types of addons like this for years but i will probably stick with this one. excellent all in one solution, kudos to the developer! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18568168, a month agoi noticed for a week or so that the "hide livestream" doesnt hide finished streams anymore.
Still a godsent of a plugin. youtubes clutter is annoying af. and what they did to the subbox. - Rated 5 out of 5by nishat, a month agowas amazed with how many little things it can do.
tho i am still seeing some feature missing.
like - video column width in search result, channel
i am very happy with this extension. thanks, sir - Rated 5 out of 5by r2_d1000, a month agoThis add-on greatly enhances YouTube, and provides a lot of needed customization options. I highly recommend it.

The add-on is diverse and useful. Its frame rate feature is helpful for low-spec devices, and it also has a feature to display a "dislike" count. - Rated 5 out of 5by Jelly Donut, a month agoAbsolutely love this add-on! It has so many great features and they all seem to work flawlessly. Really appreciate the author for making this available.
If I could make one suggestion, it would be great to have the ability to make it to shorts don't show up in my watch history. If that's not possible can you maybe make a way to bulk delete them? There a tab at the top of my watch history page that will let me view shorts only but I still have to delete them one by one. Thanks so much for this great add-on! - Rated 5 out of 5by Gengelenok, 2 months ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Mechsom, 2 months agoAn awesome extention. But has no functionality to hide the algorithm-based "latest" section on subscriptions page.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Novi, 2 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Kayra, 2 months agoIt's so good and has so many QoL features making YouTube useful again. I think we should also have an option to disable "Most Relevant" section from Subscriptions page. It's been recently added (I don't really know, maybe around early 2026) and it is really annoying.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Kaigrah, 3 months agoIt was so good until they just ruined the flaming Ruby dark theme I had recently.
