New Features

  • Add option to skip sponsored segments with SponsorBlock.
  • Add setting to change font. Default font is now Arial. Change to "Liberation serif" if you want the old font back.
  • Automatically change Tor circuit if current exit node is blocked. Currently, this is only tried once. Retrying three times will be added later.
  • Comment replies can be expanded on the page via Javascript rather than having to open in new tab (disable comments.js setting to get old functionality).
  • t hotkey to copy video url at current time
  • Add setting to disable image routing for imagus extension

Bugfixes

  • Fix video height not scaling down when browser window is narrow
  • Fix failure to find number of videos on channels.
  • Fix add-to-playlist form missing on Youtube playlists
  • Add workaround for some cases where video player is missing: retrieve video urls manually via get_video_info.

Other

  • Put video title at end of download urls so they have the video title and proper extension when saved (rather than just "videoplayback").
  • Organize settings into categories
  • Remove broken system for posting comments. Because:
    • Actually using it would result in comments being shadowbanned, even those posted from Youtube's interfacs, because your account gets downranked since no analytics are present so it looks like a bot posting the comment.
    • It's been broken for awhile
  • Focus search bar on home page
