Reviews of comments sidebar for youtube:
just what i've wanted for long! any chance for a firefox version?
This is actually insanely good. I installed it thinking it would replace the busy sidebar with the description of the video and the extension actually allows you to change the tab between related videos, playlist, comments, and descriptions. The only downside is that the tab interface is not customizable.? But I really like the extension and it has completely redesigned my viewing experience. Thank you for making this.
It works great but it needs to update. Especially the top categories that are too big and somewhat in the way when you scroll down. Also, when you go to Mini player, something weird happens. Please update.
The placement of the video is kinda awkward for me. Its just in middle of blank space. I would prefer it if the video was at the top, just under the search bar. However, over all, the extension works well. I like it and enjoy using it.
Exactly what is needed. Great job - Thanks!
Jesus, this extention is exactly what I need! Really love it <3
Only thing that would make this better is the functionality to mimic mobile portrait mode, i.e. ability to browse comments below the video with the video still at the top of the screen
Youtube is literally unusable without this plugin. People at google, we read comments while watching videos. How do you think we click on timestamps and get back to where that comment was :D It's with this plugin. Excellent.
Since YouTube recently removed for some reason the option to switch comments from below of the video to the right side of the video to read and watch the video at the same time when viewing in PC browser, I was looking for something like this. This extension is perfect for that. I don't understand why YouTube removed such feature and why such extensions even have to exist in the first place, makes no sense that YouTube makes content delivery deliberately more uncomfortable. But I am happy about this extension. Great insight how people actually want to use YouTube. Very well done.
omg ..... this is the extention we were all looking for, we needed better/easy/good youtube interface
best extension for youtube
Hii, hope that you're doing great. The comment tab is fixed. However, the description tab does not show the video description. Could you please check? Thanks.
Man its amazing, loved your work will be using it but I think you should upgrade some of the stuff which I believe doesn't need Google's approval. 1. Extension Buttons(You don't need to add Icons, text is fine by me but please refine them) 2. Add a new buttons or panel for mix(playlist), which i believe will need Google's approval. 3. Didn't wanted to put this one in but its the only annoying point I instantly grabbed, Please Fix horizontal bar behind video, but it gets fixed after adjusting the player, I don't want to adjust the player every single time to get rid of that annoying Horizontal Bar.(This is the most annoying, Please fix it I beg u it's ruining the whole point of this extension.) Lastly Thank you for your hard work and dedication.
this extension I use a lot pls fix the comment bar
Shows Description just fine. Comments don't show up.
okay i dont usually remember to write reviews for extensions and apps but i had to for this one bcuz its exactly what i needed!! i've been desperately trying to make my yotube watching experience a little more seamles on chrome. it's annoying to pause the video and look up comments. takes so much time. this extension brings all of that info at side bar while the video plays on the left. i love it. would recommend it. ty to the developer for coming up with this. keep improving!
Best Youtube extension I love the ability to resize the video was using SuperYoutube would be great if both could merge into one thanks
this is awesome but i wish you could have a light switch or something that you could toggle it off with lol
Thank you for the extension! just one little problem, 2 days ago, youtube updated something on their website and the extension stopped working on mobile (kiwi browser). could you please update the extension?

Overall I like the extension. Having the comments on the right side of videos is much more convenient. The ability to stretch the size of the window is brilliant and removes the need for the default medium sized window option. Here are some constructive criticism which I hope the next version could implement. These points is ultimately my motivations for writing the review as some of the drawbacks/negatives are making me consider going back to default youtube as they are starting to annoy me. : #The biggest annoyance is the frequency of when the comments simply do not load in and I have to reload the page, sometimes I have to reload several times. Sometimes they never load. #In full-screen the interface of the sidebar does not disappear, this is annoying for obvious reasons. # When hitting a timestamp in the comments, you always get sent all the way back to the top of the comments and have to scroll down manually to find where you left. # In a playlist it would be more convenient to stay in the comment section tab and the comments rarely load which forces you to reload the page. #The separate comment and chat tabs could be ideally merged into one and be a button that flips between the two alternatives (this is minor compared to points above) #The buttons doesn't change to dark in dark mode and could be better looking for a more overall better and more elegant look. # The size of the video should ideally automatically resize when watching a vertically filmed video taken typically with a phone. #The buttons don't scroll and disappear when scroll, which is a good thing, but the comments scroll all the way to the top making the buttons float above the comments. Ideally the comments and buttons should be separated so the whole scrolling section is just below the buttons at all times. This is also the case under 'related'. Overall it's a good extension, but these suggested improvements would make it much better and professional in my opinion.
Looked for something like this ages ago and couldn't find it. Finally did another google and your plugin was top result, and it works! Soooo much better to be able to scroll through comments without having to scroll away from the video. Thank you!
Awesome extension! I love it!!
An extension that I've been looking for a long time. Thank you for making this.
My only suggestion, would be an option to keep the description under the video, everything else in the sidebar as this extension brilliantly does.
awesome yar... this is what i was looking for long time
Brings back the 2006 YouTube feel. Thanks a lot for making this. I really love that it saves the size as well, as the theatre mode for YouTube constantly fails to remember whether its on or not. No complaints so far. I'll let you know if I have any, if that ever happens ;)! Thanks again!
I had been looking for exactly this type of extension for years. A much better approach than scrolling down a sufficient amount for the video to eventually pop out—as with pretty much all other extensions that allow viewing comments and video at the same time. That said, this extension is pretty buggy; and the design is pretty bad. There's so much that could be improved. eg: ⮚ The buttons, they should really be integrated into the design of the sidebar; and should NOT float while scrolling. ⮚ There's still some margin (unused space) around the video. ⮚ Adjusting the divider allows for the video to go beyond the viewport. ⮚ Custom divider presets would be useful. ⮚ What would be *amazing* is the option of having the: Title; share button; likes; subscribe button; description (as much as space allows) etc. either in the currently unused margin space at the top/bottom of the video OR within the top of video itself with, maybe, a black, mostly transparent gradient background to make the white text always visible while keeping top of the video still visible. I think information on what the video is should be visible at all times, even when you're reading the comments. This would also reduce the number of tabs needed, making the interface cleaner. Clicking on this transparent-title-bar could expand it down, revealing the rest of the description, reverting back 2s after mouse is nolonger hovering over it. ⮚ The chat tab should not exist. The chat should be integrated into the comments as a toggled option. ⮚ The tabs may be better placed vertically, to the left side of the side bar. Even better, would be no tabs at all. Should my suggestions be integrated, there would be no need for tabs, just a horizontal divider in the middle of the sidebar with related videos at the bottom, and comments at the top half. Adjusting the divider should, ideally, be done with a drag from within the window you want to expand, rather than having to aim the cursor at the few pixels that make up the divider. Lastly, the extension button could have custom presets for both dividers, also accessible with shortcuts.
You should be proud of yourself Dev! This is a really good productivity tool. thankyou for making my life easier. To developer: Please don't abandon this extension. Youtube is known to change from time to time so please maintain this extension from time to time. Thankyou. Edit: I forgot to mention it does what it advertise and honestly you'll be surprised by how good it actually works!
Better than SuperYoutube, and does the same thing, except, it's FREE.
I enjoy being able to read the comments while watching a video. This has completely transformed my YouTube viewing experience.
Finally! Thank you for the extension. I have been so annoyed by YouTube's layout. Today's screens are very wide and have little vertical space. But stupid YouTube's layout makes it impossible to read comments or the description while watching the video. I had submitted a suggestion to YouTube so that users could place comments on the right, just like Android version of YouTube on a landscape tablet, but no changes. I had searched for an extension for this, but the only one I could find was SuperYouTube, but it required access to ALL websites I visit. I asked the developer to limit the access to YouTube, but there was no reply. That is suspicious.... This extension does the same thing and requires access to only YouTube. Exactly what I needed.
This extension is amazing, however I had a problem when accidentally resizing the video too big and couldn't reach the resize bar. Can you add an option somewhere to reset to default size? Thank you and I will add the 5th star if this is implemented because it should have been added originally. *edit* I changed it to 5 star because the dev will be fixing the problem and they actually respond which is getting pretty rare. Again this is amazing and would recommend everyone to use this extension.
i hate it when you have to scroll down to see the CDaRV (CDaRV = Comments Description and Related Videos) because i wanna look at the video at the same time! but with this GCE (GCE = Google Chrome Extension) i can look at the video AND the CDaRV at the same time!! plus i really like the design of the GCE. thx!
Exactly what i need!
It is extremely handy for me as I do a lot of learning on youtube & the demonstrators often leave out important steps in a project, so with the extension added, I can view what other reviewers have said at the same time & still see the video. There's always someone with expertise on the video who offers hints in their reviews. Also I often copy different parts of the video, as a reminder of how to do something. With this extension I can make the video smaller, so it's easier to copy just a small part of the video. Very handy! Thks for sharing!
