I don't see the value in using an extension just to automatically watch YouTube in HD. Maybe 10 years ago, but now we got Newpipe.

Also Google Search has gone downhill for quite some time now. Why should I install an extension that reverts the enshittification Google has deliberately created?

DDG, Qwant, searXNG maybe even Brave or Kagi are better options. If you like Google Search so much, at least use Startpage.

newpipe is a custom, built-from-scratch android client for YouTube.
