YouTube Unpause
Everyone knows you can hide YouTube's adblock popup using uBlock Origin, but that still requires you to often unpause the video after the hidden popup shows up. This userscript hopefully fixes that, by automatically unpausing the video whenever it gets paused more than
inputDelay
ms after keyboard input or a mouse click. Occasionally there is some lag when pausing a video, which is whyinputDelay
isn't something particularly low like 15 ms.
