Pretty goooood, i've been looking for something like this for so long
also, would you make like a "compact view" or "preset" i know is small already but i would like making it smaller by df without changing the script content
anyways, thanks for making it n.n 🖤

I've already received a request to change it looks (moving the slider to inside the player window).
Once this script has enough interest (over 30 installs), I will start redesigning it.

Thank you for your review! :D

Note: Yeah OK after posting iNotice this web site has totally destroyed the format of the code, inserting empty lines & deleting other elements, like crazy! I will upload the real version elsewhere & post a link here. I'm only doing that in a separate post as the time to 'edit' a post is limited, though they don't say how long. O'Wait! There is an 'upload file' button too... but only for images = LOL = useless =P

Yes it needlessly wastes TONS of space. I have made it much smaller, by about half, but it's still absurdly gigantic, & also wastes lots of extra space with the useless extra line 2 display the speed number, which is E Z 2 put at the end of thetitle line instead. Ideally it should have the following modifications:
~ Put the title line below the slider
~ Put the speed indicator number 'multiplier' at the end of the title line
~ Give the slider a border, so we can see it with various dark themes (many script examples of 'theme modifiers' out there to see how they sometimes cause 'contrast problems'
~ Get rid of the outside border around the entire 'module'. Nobody needs it, & extra lines like that just clutter up the appearance of the page.
~ Eliminate extra space around the slider & title below it = nobody needs or wants any 'padding'. That's just a $cam evil people do, like Google spacing out all the bookmarks like crazy to try & make everything useless, so you 'just google it' instead of 'managing favorites'.
~ Put the entire thing above the user name & 'subscribe' button stuff, but below the video title.
~ Change the 'bubble button icon' to a simple square with 2 chevrons (sideways 'V' shapes) inside, pointing left & right = so anybody can intuitivey recognize that it is for 'sliding side-to-side'
~ Widen the silder so it uses the same width as the video player 'box' above it.

Note: I have helped add some elements & improvements noted above, but sinde 'greasyfork' demands silly '2 factor authentictator apps' & 'phone QR code' nonsense 2 post, iWill try & do it here in the commet instead. iSuppose this will get me 'BANNED FOREVER!' because I'm trying 2 help people out = typical 'gang' mentality of many web sites, like the whole 'moderator disease' where they R all about abusing the users 2 get off on the 'power trip' of deleting comments & baning people from their 'collection' of 'ornaments' 2 rule over with their 'clan' of 'superior' powered 'posters' = The Mighty 'Mods' LOL =)) Everything below this line is the code as I have modded it. It is NOT ideal, but I am not a programmer. Anybody interested, please fix what you can, & mail me the r###lt at 'balkanguy (at) live (dot) com' =) BTW:I do not know if the 'forum format' will damage the code in some way like inserting 'returns' or other mods that break the 'format rules' for 'Tampermonkey' or something =/ This is kind of an experiment, & if it does not work I will upload my mods & stuff to real web sites like archive.org that don't try 2 torture us with these '2 factor authentication' nonsense prank games ~>

iHav improved this 'YTSpeed+' & 'Speed+' stuff (practically the same thing) & many other scripts 4 Tampermonkey (4 yor inspiration & 'modifications' =) in many ways, & 2 C my many modz ov thiz & othur 'appz' 4 brauZen, go heer ~>
https://archive.org/download/KQQLThengz
& download the 'tampermonkey-backup' file. The exact full name will change over time as iUpdate $tuff =)
It's fairly 'small' even though there R hundreds of scripts in it, as they R a 'compact' format.
'Capture' (how ever U want 2 do this) the 'mymod' version of 'YTSpeed+' (currently 'MyMod 4' but maybe future generations as iEnhance things =) 2 C which is 'the latest greatest' & 'active' in mysetup, back up your Tampermonkey (with 'settings') & then delete it all form the browser, & load up mine (or use another browser =) & then U can clearly C which R active on YouTube & so on when U click the icon in the tool bar 2 C the list.

iWood Lov 2 post $hit heer, but 'Greasyfork' has ridiculous '2 factor authentication' nonsense games 2 sabotage everything, including innovation & the 'community' in general = lame. 'U must have a phone & a special app & bladee bla 2 B 'worthy' of posting on our glorious 'dork gang' web site, U 'stupid peasant fuk'. NO! We can upload stuff 'anywhere' without all that bull$hit, like archive.org! =) Even a bank doesn't demand all that nonsense!!
