Summary
This is a simple add-on that slightly alters functionality on YouTube. What it does is that when you click on the author/channel name below the YouTube video you're currently watching (not usernames in the comments or sidebar), instead of going to the 'Home' tab by default you are redirected to the 'Videos' tab.
I do this because 'Home' usually auto plays an 'introduction' video that isn't necessary if you're already going to their channel and obscures most of their videos. Most of the time, when you click a YouTube channel you are trying to find more of their videos.
There is no configuration necessary and there are no options to enable or disable the functionality. If you installed the add-on, you accept that redirecting to the 'Videos' tab is your new accepted default behavior when you click on a username.
How to use: Click the authors username below the current YouTube video.
If you need a reference of the area that is affected, you may find the screenshot as a helpful reference. If you're still not following the picture, it works on ANY video and not just specifically that individual person in my screenshot. Really, it's so simple that it's almost unnecessary that I need to fill out a full featured description for it.
