I tried this extension just for reversing Youtube playlists because I wanted to watch videos in the order they were made, especially for videos which referenced earlier videos (it's stupid that Youtube doesn't give you the option to begin with). However this feature does not work at all. I would have given a higher rating even so, however I looked at the other reviews and saw how rude the developer was to other people who rated it low because as they (dev) put it "one feature out of thousands...

works for me in all browsers and many users(as you might read)(writing down the facts isn't rude)(for trouble shooting you can log out of your youtube account or let us know the specific experiment flags youtube gives that account.) I don't know if the feature fails once again for maybe 10% of users or more or less. Yet YouTube changed a few times and users are pre-frustrated even since years and previous extensions they used that usually might have been updated less often than ours. While this feature makes most of the negative reviews it harms the whole project exceptionally though. So in total we might have to label this feature as legacy/"no longer updated", and if that doesn't help we can remove the feature to stop the reviews.
