Raise your hand if you can't stand the auto-play bar at the bottom of youtube videos.

Fuuuuuuuuuuu!

If you don't know, it sets up a queue of videos and plays them when the video youre watching ends. Automatically. Without your consent. And you have to turn it off every single time you go to another video. I should also add that i'm pretty sure it only shows up if you sign in to a Youtube profile. Which i do to keep a favorites list.

Here is a fix for Google Chrome users!!!

YouTube is just falling apart... I wish they would stop messing with it and keep it the way it is. No one wants all these dumb new updates.

I have not experienced this bar. This may have something to do with the fact that I never favorite videos. Chances are there's a way to remove it, although I have no clue what it might be.

Wow... I haven't seen this yet. I already hate it.

Why do they keep adding things to youtube? For every six they add, only one is actually useful.

I can't switch it off. As in I can, but the moment I open another video, it turns itself right back on, making it redundant to turn it off. I already have to expand the video every time I want to watch it, I don't want to have to turn something off every video now too.

Youtube has cancer?

I get dibs on all it's stuff once it's dead!

OT: The bar thing doesn't bother me

At the end of a video I might want to type a comment. So I am typing, thinking if it was all I wanted to say so I won't look like a spammer... aaand se- HEY! What the? Didn't I turn that thing off? Now I have to go back and re-comment! I'd rather want a larger list of video's from my subscriptions on the front page! I need to push the big grey bar down each time!

I like the random colour-style Icon though...

The issue: It takes up unnessiary room and just is an annoyance and somewhat inconvient I don't see the issue

P.S. Sorry for the really bad pun/joke.

But... but... updates signify modernity and staying hip and trendy! Think of the shareholders man!

You can't... kinda.

If you have Adblock, add these to the filters:
youtube.com##DIV#quicklist-tray
youtube.com##DIV#quicklist-bar
youtube.com##DIV#quicklist-bar-container

If in doubt, Google it! I just got rid of it, myself.

At least they don't have one of those things where it tries to fill in the rest of the whole thing while you're typing instead of just suggesting things.
