Auto-scrolling comments side panel for YouTube: read the comments hands-free while you watch. Watch the video. Read the comments. At the same time. AutoScroll Comments shows the YouTube comment section in a side panel that scrolls by itself — slowly, like movie credits — so you can follow the comments hands-free while the video plays. No more scrolling down, losing the video, and scrolling back up. HOW IT WORKS Open any YouTube video and the panel appears next to the player, loads the comments, and starts drifting through them at a calm, readable pace. When a comment catches your eye, just move your mouse over the panel — scrolling pauses instantly so you can read, expand replies, like, or reply yourself. Move the mouse away and the flow continues. These are YouTube's real comments, not a copy: replies, likes, sorting, timestamps and endless loading all work exactly like they do on the normal page. FEATURES • Opens automatically on every video and starts scrolling once comments load • Hover to pause — interact with comments as usual • 5 scroll speeds, adjustable from the panel, remembered between sessions • Pauses automatically while the video is paused • Hides automatically in fullscreen • Close it with one click; bring it back anytime with the floating 💬 button • Follows YouTube's light and dark theme PRIVACY No data collection, no tracking, no ads, no network requests. The only permission is "storage", used to remember your scroll speed on your own device. Runs only on youtube.com. This extension is an independent project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by YouTube or Google. --- # Patch Note # AutoScroll Comments for YouTube — v0.2.0 ## Chrome Web Store release notes The comments panel is now more reliable across YouTube navigation and layout variants. Long comments expand automatically, scrolling recovers from stale video and hover state, and the video resizes to make room for the panel. ### What's new - Automatically expands truncated comments so the full text is visible. - Supports standard and alternate YouTube comment layouts. - Improves panel recovery during YouTube's in-page navigation. - Improves auto-scroll detection for nested comment containers. - Avoids pauses caused by stale video or hover state. - Removes the experimental reply auto-expansion controls. - Keeps the same privacy model: no tracking, no data collection, and no new permissions.
