User reviews
OH WOW!! Does what's on the box! Which is EXACTLY what I was looking for!! TL:DR - it seems to replace the string "/watch?v=" with the string "/embed/" (you can even test it yourself before using this add-on/extension by replacing those strings). It also adds the suffix "-nocookie" to the domain. This extension/add-on opens yt links/videos into a full screen 'embed' thumbnail which is higher in resolution & dimensions compared to the 'norm' - ie. the WHOLE thumbnail is displayed in FULL resolution! Brilliant! P.S. Pls don't steal/hack my PC! (This is a 'Day 01' review)
