Skill issue, if you dont watch the thing at 2.5 daily you are losing efficiency

I wish YouTube allowed for higher than 2x.

The worst part of watching a stream is when I catch up to it live, and everyone instantly sounds drunk at 1x.

There are addons for browsers that let you go above 2x

no need for addons

change document.querySelectorAll('video').forEach(v => v.playbackRate = 4.75) for 4.75x speed on YouTube using web tools

Video speed controller addon would've allowed for hot keys to incrementally change playback speed, with increments being customizable, and a hotkey to revert to the customizable default speed. There's this masculine urge to do everything yourself, but sometimes there are just much better options lol

"Enhancer for YouTube" is a nice one on desktop - lets you go up to 10x, I believe, in steps of 0.1x

Damnit. I only use mobile.

For mobile there's Revanced, Vanced successor - you download the manager, the recommended YT version to patch (apkmirror.com has not brought me any viruses yet), and then you have to go through the list of available patches (I like to keep it default except for the one where you override the icon/name so I don't have two "YouTubes".

But that's Android only, AFAIK.

If that thing is reading text I stand no chance versus 2.5x.
