YouTube pausing keeps locking up, so Pause/Play basically is not functional. Good for skipping tracks though.

Great extension that was unfortunately abandoned and doesn't work properly anymore. It's a shame, because the fix is on github and has been there for some time, but they refuse to do anything about it.
