Chat Observatory

Pop out YouTube live chat in large text with local voice reading (｀・ω・´)ゞ

Turn a second screen into a comfortable YouTube live-chat observatory! (★ω★) Chat Observatory is a Manifest V3 Chrome extension for streamers, presenters, and viewers ヾ(•ω•)o. It opens YouTube live_chat in a separate, readable large-text window, so you can follow a busy chat while gaming, working, presenting, or watching from a distance (´；ω；)! 【✨ Highlights】 🌌 12 built-in cosmic themes: switch the look to match your stream and mood (｀・ω・´)ゞ 🖼️ Local custom backgrounds: import JPG, PNG, or WebP images; optimization happens in the browser and nothing is uploaded (ﾉ>ω<)ﾉ 🗣️ Optional local voice reading: use Chrome's built-in SpeechSynthesis with voice, speed, volume, and preview controls; no remote speech service is called (´・ω・)b 🎛️ Flexible display controls: adjust message, panel, and avatar sizes, with avatar, badge, keyword highlight, and URL cleanup options (≧∀≦)ゞ 💬 Keep up with regular messages, Super Chat, Super Sticker, and membership messages so important interactions are easier to notice (•̀ᴗ•́)و 【🔒 Privacy and local operation】 No account, backend, analytics, tracking, advertising, or remote speech service is required. Chat content, display settings, and custom backgrounds are processed and stored only in your browser. They are not sent to the developer or any third party, so you can focus on the conversation with peace of mind (*´∀)~♥ Chat Observatory is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by YouTube or Google. For help, please see the project README. Make your chat clearer and more comfortable
