A month and half ago launched Maxxmod, a Chrome extension that improves the YouTube experience by removing distractions (hiding Shorts and cleaning up search results) and adding new tools and shortcuts (volume booster, screenshot tool, quick access to Picture-in-Picture and playback speed controls). I’ve been adding features since then.

Last week, YouTube introduced GIFs in comments, so added an option to stop them from autoplaying and play them on demand (a play button).
