- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 20080469, 15 days agoIt works, but you have to click 3 times to play a video.
- Click once to open the video.
- Player loads and video can start briefly before the plugin can stop it, this is coming from the way YouTube optimizes video pages to start playing ASAP.
- Plugin stops the video and shows the 'unloaded' view.
- Click the unloaded video to opt-in to playing it, still doesn't play.
- Click again to play. I don't know why you have to click twice here, but that makes three total.
It would be nice if clicking a video from the subscriptions or algorithm list would start playing immediately, but using back/forward or revisiting an old tab would not auto-play. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19886097, 4 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by iG0R, 9 months agoCurrently, it works as advertised, i.e., it stops YouTube videos from autoplaying. Moreover, it does this better than all the other 4 add-ons I've used previously.

- Rated 5 out of 5by ok, a year agoWorking as advertised for me.
Edited /*Though, I was looking for it to not load when I clic on another tab I opened, but when I change video on the same page I’d like an autoload. But well, I suppose that differentiation can’t be made ^^ */
Edit : Spoke too soon, there is a setting for that !
But sadly, it doesn’t seem to work… It only makes backgroud tab bug. - Rated 5 out of 5by centurion 2000, a year ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Deathmatic, a year agoIt works just fine (latest browser, no problems with other extensions). The Only problem i see is that you sometimes have to click 2x to have it load and play. Another problem: In comparison to another browser, it loads the video about 4-5 Seconds, whereas the other Browser feels like it starts after 1-2 Seconds. But overall: it works so Videos don't start on their own. I don't know why YT did that BS and removed it, but that extension is definitely putting it back, despite a little bit of clunkiness.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17656794, 3 years agoSo fucking sick of addons who only have one job and don't fucking do it or even get close. This exists solely to block autoplay. DOESN'T FUCKING DO THAT.
