2023-07-15	[email protected]	Good addon but it's a pain for me to use Youtube. In about:addons under options I can only select "moderate". Is there another way to lower Youtube's strictness? I saw at the github's site within the wiki that you can edit the json file. And I did. But I can't seem to follow from there. Can you help me? What are the next steps if I don't have Linux? Or is it not possible to do this on Windows? I tried zipping the folder, renaming it to xpi and injecting it with Nightly by also removing something in about:config about addons being signed, but it didn't work cause it said the file was corrupt. Thank you for your time.

2020-12-12	Firefox user 14734882	I do not recall ever installing this addon and it hijacked every YT link I clicked on like SafeMode was turned on.
2020-12-08	Jawad	Overall, a very good extension. Could you add https://www.onesearch.com/ to the list? edit: I think I found the answer to your question. In the url of the search result, there is a vm parameter that can have 3 values. I found out that vm=r is strict, vm=i is moderate and vm=p is off. I hope this helps you. edit2: Added one star after onesearch was added. Thank you again.
2020-11-14	Firefox user 15122656	Its a great idea but it does not seem to work very well?!? I installed this extension to include private mode, and nothing seemed to happen?!? I even went so far as to restarted Firefox and still nothing happened when I visited https://xhamster4.com/photos/gallery/12786417/324655470 as a test and nothing happened, am I missing something? I will update if this is resolved. Thank You!
