Flow Chat for YouTube Live

Chrome Extension for Flow Chat Messages on YouTube Live.

Important

This is a fork of the original extension by fiahfy.

Fork changes from fiahfy's original extension

  • Removed option to have bottom chat controls. Reason: YouTube's code became incompatible with how the bottom chat input was being moved.
  • Live chat input has been moved on top of the live chat (right below the video). It isn't visible in fullscreen unless you scroll down.
  • Tab visibility awareness. Better performance when leaving/entering the tab.
  • Removed filtering due to performance concerns with original implementation.
  • Testing an FPS limiting / throttling option. I don't recommend using it due to very minor performance gains.
