Review Summary
ChatReplay is praised for bringing Twitch chat to YouTube VODs, significantly enhancing the viewer experience, especially for streams lacking embedded chat. It is easy to use and well-liked among fans. However, users report technical issues like increased memory usage causing lag, and interface problems after updates cause the chat activation button to disappear. The extension also lacks customization features and chat filters, which some users desire to improve readability and reduce clutter.
Pros
- Enables viewing Twitch chat alongside VODs on YouTube, enhancing the viewing experience by providing full context.
- Easy to use and works well on supported channels.
- Highly appreciated by users who enjoy streamers that do not provide chat with their VODs, making content more engaging.
- Generally reliable and provides a quality-of-life improvement for watching streamer content.
Cons
- Extension suffers from performance issues such as high memory usage and computer lag after extended use, possibly due to memory leaks.
- The activation button or chat overlay sometimes disappears or stops working following YouTube or Chrome updates, requiring developer fixes.
- Lacks customization features, including chat font size adjustments, readable color options, and ability to resize or reposition the chat window.
- No filtering options, such as removing subscribe or follow notifications, which can clutter chat during busy streams.
