    In addition to some of the ones listed in OP, I use

    • YouTube Auto Like - automatically likes videos you open them (optionally only when you’re subscribed to the channel). If you’re on a Chromium browser, Google removed this extension from their web store so you can’t install it from there anymore. But you can install it manually if you want by downloading it from the Github repo here.

      I also use the following userscripts:

    • Return Youtube Dislike - Does the same thing as the Return Youtube Dislike extension in the OP

    • Youtube Shorts Redirect - redirects Youtube Shorts to a full watch page, so you can watch them like a regular video.

    • Resize YT To Window Size - resizes the video player so that it fills in the entire dimensions of the browser window and moves video players to the top of the page so you can scroll down to see comments, recommend videos, etc.

    • YouTube CPU Tamer by AnimationFrame - reduces Youtube’s CPU usage during video playback. I don’t really understand the technical aspects but it’s all explained in the description of the userscript. This script IS NOT compatible with SponsorBlock!

      Stuff I’m looking for (if anyone has any recommendations):

    • Remove duplicate videos from a playlist

    • display playlists in a grid layout instead of a list layout

    • block youtube channels i don’t like

    edit: fixed a formatting mistake
