Playlist: Up next: off, shouldn't jump to the next video?
Bug Report:
⚬ BUG: Even when Playlist > 'Up next autoplay' is disabled, YouTube automatically loads the next video after the current one finishes. This behavior is not intuitive I think. When the video reaches the end and finishes, you should remain on that video's page so you can browse comments, share it, give it a thumbs-up, etc.
⚬ EXPECTED (/preferred) behavior: I expect that if 'Up next autoplay' is disabled, then the next video would not load until I click on it in the list.
Setup:
⚬ ImprovedTube Version: 3.922 ⚬ Browser: Firefox ⚬ OS: Arch Linux
wwelcoome @f35f0ef9d0e827dae86552d3899f78fc There also are extra autoplay settings in our playlist section. So thats up to each user.
But only when you search 'autopl..', then you see all the different options at once:
So of course we could improve default presentation structure / behavior.
please let me know if you will have any ideas.
I.e.
- There could be a predefined search for Hide,Remove&Autoplay or a section called 'tidy/distractions'
- once you set one of these a similar one could be suggested below - or the whole list again, just without forcing to click/react.

Part of our users will go through every option for once. The average time spent when opening the extension menu is ~6 minutes. Which means new users really spend some time to set it up initially. (Since long-term users decrease the average a lot through just changing a single switch.)
All of the auto play options are already disabled. The issue is that when you're watching a video from a playlist, the next video on the list loads automatically. It does not start playing, it just loads. It takes you away from the previous video.
