Ooh, thanks for the GlazeWM shout, that’s awesome. I use vim keybinds in as many programs as I can and that is awesome for switching between the browser and terminal or text editor.
If it’s on YouTube, then Sponsorblock will work on it as well. (Given someone has marked the sections, which is almost always)
Vimium-C is a rewrite and is better, and more well-documented.
If you’re primarily downloading videos, there’s a much better open-source app for that called tydlnis, here: https://ytdlnis.com
If you’re using it to just browse, there probably is, but I can’t help you there.
YTDLnis is better, in my opinion.

Maybe looks a bit less “clean” (still looks great though) but the downloading menu has every option in an easy place. I really don’t like how Seal hides all the important options for the sake of simplicity.
