- Rated 2 out of 5by Seven, 8 days agoGreat ideas but the performance hit, as others report, is too severe. Disabling other addons does not seem to help. (Firefox 133.0.3)

posted 8 days agoIt's weird, what extension version are you using? Maybe it's outdated, the latest one is 16.4.2, could you please send a recording of the performance on hello@pockettube.io because I don't see a way how to reproduce it. - Rated 5 out of 5by Eddie™, 13 days ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by manface723, 22 days agoi actually like it but most features are locked behind a paywall.

posted 22 days agoThank you for sharing! Our basic features for organizing subscriptions are completely free and we won't change it. If you want extended features you can become a patron to support me. It takes time to update the extension every time YouTube changes internally. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18741631, 25 days agoSevere performance impact. This extension significantly reduced responsiveness of the YouTube subscriptions page. Channel group management page was very choppy. Actions taking at least 5 seconds to complete.
Update-disabling add-ons did not improve performance. I have over 700 subscriptions, maybe that is too many for the extension.Developer response
posted 25 days agoIt's weird, I can't reproduce the behavior. Try to disable other extensions, I suspect you have a conflict with something. - Rated 5 out of 5by calebdevelops, a month ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by daniboi, a month agoCame back on a second sync (on Linux) after initially removed on Windows.
A Mozilla server end glitch?
Annoying "popup" for feedback as to why it was removed (on reboot into Windows).Developer response

Upd: Any extension can't come back automatically in the browser without user interaction. We are limited by the Firefox browser, it's tech not possible, maybe the behavior you describe is related to a bug on the browser side, but we're not Firefox developers.
My extension has a Recommended badge with a deep review process for every version. The badge has only 100 extensions in the Firefox store. There is no reason to blame us and rate my hard work around the extension with 1-star without issues related to my extension. - Rated 4 out of 5by Abg, a month ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Someone, a month agoAbsurd price for such an extension and hiding the fact that many, in fact the most useful features, are behind a monthly/yearly paywall.

posted a month agoThe basic groups for organizing subscriptions are completely free, if you want extended features you should become a patron. The link on Patreon is available in the description with a list of features. It takes time to update the extension every time YouTube changes internally.
Furthermore, the decision to keep some features for the Patreon version of PocketTube was made to ensure the long-term feasibility of the free version. - Rated 5 out of 5by zyb, 2 months ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Jack, 2 months agoIt actually pretty good and do the job. Im happy with that. It is one of the plugin that on the list when I moving from browser to browser. The only thing is that youtube is getting a bit laggy obviously when running the plugin which I have 22 group and 112 channel in them. and the reaction is not instant enough, it will load like 1-2 second to get into a group

posted 2 months agoThank you for sharing! We're waiting for the YouTube page to be completely loaded, and then we can start the extension sidebar. It can take time, but it's already optimized enough, and we make it as fast as possible. - Rated 1 out of 5by Ha2-53, 2 months agoSeriously, stop making extensions have a paid subscription, it ruins it.
