I see a set of large images where the mouse cursor indicates they are clickable, but clicking in Firefox with AdBlock enabled doesn't work. I clicked for a long time and realized you're making fun of me?

PS: just use https://github.com/justinribeiro/lite-youtube

Sorry for that, it used to play videos before but was causing lag when loaded, so I had to disable it. Though there is a link to open in a new tab.

Yeah, using Nuxt Script which is similar to lite-youtube: https://scripts.nuxt.com/scripts/content/youtube-player

Great! I'm missing 'Most points Last Week', 'Most points Last Month' etc. That would be nice!

Cool. Was hacker-tube not available?

I prefer a denser layout like 3 or 4 across. You could just have it auto-flow without side margins, then zooming smaller would naturally just do that.

It is available thanks for suggestion a cool name!

Yeah will sure add a denser layout missed out on it as I use it on phone!

notsahil · 2025-04-13T20:24:08 1744575848

Done should be more denser now!

Sometimes I do use the search functionality to find something to watch. But this looks neat.

Does it include those from comments? Great videos to be found there, too.
