This is clearly a sign that the product failed to draw in enough customers and its viability was overhyped.

Hopefully, it is the start of the AI bubble bursting.

Edit 2: I checked the contact page for the dev and went through an archive site to check, and yep, I did recall correctly. it is the same extension. glad that the dev is back maintaining the firefox extension again! best youtube debullshittificator extension IMO

Edit: I've checked the version history for the firefox extension and now I'm doubting myself. am I crazy? (yes, I am) was it another extension I'm thinking of?

Wait, hold on. Enhancer for Youtube is back on Firefox? Correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC the dev didn't update the extension for firefox for a long time due to some policies mozilla have with extensions, and IIRC it has been stuck at 2.5 something whereas the chromium version gotten the 3.0.

I've had to make do with another youtube extension since it keep bugging out.

this is great news!
