- Rated 1 out of 5by Samg381, 7 months agoThe developer uses this extension as a personal facebook wall. This extension has nagged me one too many times with completely unrelated messaging. First was the data harvesting, and now begging for donations because the developer lives near a war zone. Don't use this extension if you value your time, or are frustrated by ads. There is probably some unsavory data harvesting going on in the background as well.

posted 7 months agoNo data harvesting is going on. https://github.com/avi12/youtube-auto-hd - Rated 3 out of 5by MarsSeed, 7 months agoSometimes buggy on Android: settings for the video pops up briefly at the start of playback before automatically disappearing. Also sometimes screws up when opening video from my YouTube history - redirects to my YouTube subscriptions instead of the video page I wanted to load (Firefox Nightly for Android). Edit: Still this addon is very useful on Android, as it is the only working one that lets one set YouTube playback quality. Please kindly allow this again to be installed on Android. Edit 2: seems to have gotten worse on Android and m.youtube.com, pops up the video settings every time I make the video time jump to another point, and also sometimes even seems to trigger a redirect to a different video.

posted 7 months agoIt was very painful to support both Firefox for Android and Kiwi, a Chromium browser for Android, but as far as my testing goes, I eventually nailed it and pushed the result to version 1.8.8

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 17124031, 10 months agoit does what it says, but there's a really annoying "support YTHD" button next to the subscribe button/channel name that cuts off the channel name most of the time.

- Rated 2 out of 5by PipeCat, a year agoavi12, you need to have a 3rd party audit your scripts or you will keep losing users.

As someone with limited expensive bandwidth this saves me so much grief. Have been using it for a long time, but for some reason, it stopped working on my MacBook Pro. Still works great on my iMac. Please help!

posted a year agoThat sounds very strange, please file a bug report: https://github.com/avi12/youtube-auto-hd/issues/new/choose - Rated 1 out of 5by tuffghost, a year agoNew version wants permissions no extension should ever be asking for, i.e. browsing history. After already being informed via an invasive Google Form that the developer is considering selling our data, I will no longer trust this extension. Vile stuff.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Paul, a year agoI was using this addon on Edge and I really liked it but I'm not sure if I can still trust it after it suddenly redirected me to a Google Form without my permission (without asking me at all actually)

- Rated 1 out of 5by avi13, a year agoWARNING!!! This extension intends to become malware! It redirected users to a random survey website, against their permission, to ask if they would be so kind as to allow avi12 to steal their information and sell their browsing histories. Do not trust any extension by this author.
Developer response
posted a year agoI understand your concerns pal
First off, no Firefox users' data will be collected; rather, IF data will be collected, it will only be Chrome users'
Second, I'm conducting the survey to get a broad picture of what would be the right direction
I could've equally just dumped a script for Chrome users, but I don't do it
For more information, https://github.com/avi12/youtube-auto-hd/discussions/68 - Rated 1 out of 5by Bort, a year agoi WAS using this addon and finding it working as expected. Until I was redirected to a new tab and asked (Via google form? fucking seriously dude?) if I would be comfortable with the creator SELLING MY DATA. I recommend finding an alternative. To directly quote the review Two places down, "Not only is this an issue in the sense that I was redirected to another site without my permission, it also shows that this extension could start taking your information in the future." To go even further, it shows this extension already WANTS to be taking and selling your information. The creator has made his intent known and we should jump ship while we can.

posted a year agoRest assured, I won't collect Firefox users' data
If I will collect users' data, it will only be Chrome's, and it'll be opt-in - Rated 1 out of 5by scumhero, a year ago
