Review Summary
The Permanent Progress Bar for YouTube extension is praised for providing a convenient, always-visible progress indicator with customization options that enhance user experience during video watch. However, multiple users report it occasionally stops working requiring reinstall or restart, and has bugs with color settings. It struggles with live streaming and live replay videos where the progress bar is inaccurate or overlaps unwanted areas. Slow update speed and occasional mismatching with YouTube's own progress bar are noted drawbacks. Despite issues, many users find it useful and simple when operational.

Cons
- The extension sometimes stops working or fails and requires reinstallation or restarting Chrome to function again.
- There are bugs related to the progress bar color customization causing it to disappear.
- It does not work properly or at all on YouTube live streams or live replays, with progress bar positioning issues and incorrect progress display.
