Reading the issues here I've seen two great addons recommended by the community of YCS-cont:

[Timestamped YouTube Comments] Not available for Firefox, sadly.
(https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/timestamped-youtube-comme/gnpppldhfbbagiaalkddddajadhlgofm)

and

Reddit comments for the youtube link
(https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/reddit-comments-for-youtu/eeoojlakofhogpkplghnmcljbcjdobbo)

...

Is there any other addon for youtube experiences like (obviously YCS-cont itself), that you could recommend?
I would add:

Ublock Origin
BlockTube
SponsorBlock

Here are the ones I like:

PocketTube

A Subscription Manager

  • ability to create groups to organize your subscriptions
  • ability to create views based on your groups and playlists
  • easy way to find if there was something new posted on a group you created
  • on a Channel Videos page, you have filters for videos that you already watched
  • some other features that I don't use often

Great if you, like me, subscribed to hundreds of channels but only watch a couple of them from time to time.
It has some other paid features, but the free version is enough to me.

Video Speed Controller

A better playback speed controller

  • allows for finer adjustments
  • allows for speed above 2x
  • easy to use keyboard shortcuts
  • works on most video players, including other sites

Unhook

Great to remove distractions, but I'm not using it at the moment.

Chapters In Player

Kinda self-explanatory, sometimes useful.

Video Screenshot

The easiest way I found to take a perfect screenshot of a Youtube video.
You can consider it like a frame downloader, which is more useful than I thought it would be.
Just keep in mind that if you also use SponsorBlock, you should disable the Auto-hide Info Button, otherwise, the icons may dance while you are trying to click them, which is very annoying.

I wish something to the unlogged youtube page too. It's literally hell seeing these forced "breaking news" or whatever youtube editors want to impose there.
