Overview
This script replaces the "handle" in the YouTube comments section to user name
"Return YouTube Comment Username" returns the comment username to its traditional username format. With YouTube's update, "handle" (user IDs starting with @) are now displayed in the name field of the comments section, and traditional usernames are no longer visible in the comments. This extension will replace the "handle" in the video comments section, community comments section, and the comments section of the top notification with your old username. If you find any bugs or problems, please feel free to submit an Issue on Github. https://github.com/yakisova41/return-youtube-comment-username/issues

It doesn't work. Handles still appear in the comments. I refreshed the page to no avail. It's obvious that this no longer works. Avoid.

Only seems to work for other people's comments, but if you reply to any of them it's not able to bypass Youtube's horrible decision to mimic Titok. Hats off to the dev for making a solid effort though. At least it fixes the general view of comments. I do seem to recall it working even when replying when it first came out. I'm sure yakisova41 will fix it pretty soon.
