Description

Allows you to quickly view videos from your subscriptions feed page

Watch videos without leaving your YouTube subscriptions feed page, and possibly without ever clicking.

Hover over thumbnails in your feed page to view that video. How about thumbnails at the side of a video page? That works too!

Q: What's better than a nice subscriptions feed page that you can scroll forever?
A: A page where you can scroll forever AND watch videos.

P.S. This is open-source at https://github.com/ngzhian/quickview

Timer doesn't seem to work (always defaults to ~10ms), popping up constantly, unintentionally

current requirement to get this addon to work: YouTube > Settings > Playback and performance > Browsing > Video previews (toggle this off)

it works great, but the delay option doesn't actually delay the video showing up like I think was the intention? I set it to the equivalent of a minute of delay and it still shows up in a couple of seconds. I set it to all 9s, up until the max, and got the same result.
