It's really frustrating that every time I click on a video to watch, it immediately scrolls me down to the comments. Then, I have to scroll back up to the video. This issue needs to be fixed as soon as possible. Thank you.

Still the best extension on the entire ChromeWebStore. There is a new little bug that has to be corrected, when i load a new tab with a youtube video, the tab ends loading correctly but the video goes Up (as if you were scrolling down the tab) its a little bug, but it annoys a little. Please Fix it. Love you improvedtube!

Best Extension ever. I only enable: Remove related search results Hide Shorts on the home page at 'Subscriptions' at 'Trending' at 'History' and Youtube has been wonderful. Thanks dev for making this lovely extension. Hope you all make it possible to return the dislikes feature :).
