Description

-- What's New -- - Sidesy now loads more reliably when you open, navigate between, or refresh YouTube videos - Removed the "tabs" browser permission — it's no longer needed with the new approach - Sidesy now has a popup! Click on the icon from your extensions list to view quick-links --- Features - 1. Built for convenience with an eye for aesthetics. Unlike other similar options in the market, the sidebar comments don't feel out of place. They look nice and work well. 2. Dark & light modes depending on your YouTube settings. 3. Easy toggle integrated right into the comments section to easily switch between default and sidebar views. If you enjoyed using Sidesy, please consider leaving a review - it really helps a lot!

This extension no longer works ever since they moved the sort by option to the far right, therefore blocking the button.

I really want to like this, but the fact it forces you out of theatre mode is a deal breaker for me. The whole reason I'd like the video and comments to be side by side is so I can glance between the two as needed whilst the video plays, but theatre mode or fullscreen is essential for viewing at higher resolutions.

when it works, it's really good. but somehow when I open a video, usually the switch button isn't there until I reload the page. it's annoying when it happens.
