The Firefox update is finally on the way! This release adds support for Firefox's new requirements. I expect version 4.0.5 to pass Mozilla's review within a week, bringing the long-awaited Firefox update. Firefox 140 or newer is required.

What's changed

  • YouTube Shorts: Fixed missing dislike counts and stale controls when scrolling between Shorts, with better support for newer YouTube layouts and navigation between regular videos and Shorts.

  • New: Hide clutter buttons. Enable it in the extension settings to keep Like and Dislike visible. Share, Save, Thanks, and other optional actions remain available in YouTube's three-dot More menu. Off by default.

  • Fixed action buttons clipping, wrapping, or flickering on narrow video pages.

  • Improved dislike-count and ratio-bar updates when navigating between videos without reloading.

  • New: GitHub contributor sign-in. Contributors can now sign in with GitHub to access premium features.

the youtube dislike extensions have gotta be massive privacy risks, right? they track your IP, a fingerprint, and your engagement with youtube content. all you have is the developer's word that they aren't selling your data. and the data could be accessed without them knowing.

someone's gotta pay for the servers to run.
