Original introduction

«Improve YouTube!»   

/ImprovedTube/ is a strong & lightweight extension! - 80 features / the only one of a kind!

Since 2012 we have gradually been adding lightweight features, while keeping up with Youtube changes. (throughout the years we witnessed the birth & fall of other promising & open YouTube Extensions 1, 2, ... ) Today adding features can be easier & so motivating as there are 500 000 users. [👪Join us].

Spread the word 📣

        - Why arent there millions of users yet? We didn't write a guide or manual, let alone ads. This project can "fly much higher" through your word of mouth & eventually enable us to work on all wishes & immediate fixes around the clock🌱


Initiative for Open-Source Efficiency: 🌱Pull Requests bots

(will especially help medium-size projects)(+regEx Collector?)


Vision for the (tweaking-/userStyle-/modding-)Community:

We can start to optimize things for the world, greatly priotized: github/Universal-UserTweaks "insteada mostly only tweakin@home like Sisyphos"


🎁Our Extensions:

Superb: History Manager Filter: unFreeze me & Dark Mode
Research: Ultimate Regex (Search & Replace, markup to come?)("Ctrl+F+Shift") (Regex Replace) Browser: Custom user agent & auto-scroll
Video / Media: (to be integrated in ImprovedTube...) Looper Frame by Frame unBlob (Equalizer)
Home: (Start Page tabs to be uploaded ), TextEditor , ToDo
Development: Satus (Our JS library) | WebGL.js - WebGL Library | endless grid, CodeEditor, TE, Viscum Player - video.js?)

💡 Got great/er ideas?

📜Historic Introduction

ImprovedTube,       is an extension we built to refine your YouTube experience. A powerful one-stop-shop with many features to enhance YouTube, yet liteweight. Be it a larger player or more tidy / studious YouTube UI, hiding distractions. And there was so much left to build and are many clever features to come still.        ImprovedTube is designed with our own UI library: Satus (to manage your settings efficiently & create familiar apps/'cousins easily.)       Please spread the word: ImprovedTube is the only project of it's kind, because other open Youtube Extensions resigned. No other project provides so much CSS to adjust a website🦄.
