Description
Feature Request: Watch Later Smart Management
Description
Improve Watch Later playlist management: keyboard shortcut to add/remove, bulk operations (clear watched, sort, export), and smart auto-cleanup.
Why
- YouTube Watch Later Shortcut (GreasyFork) — add/remove with keyboard
- PlaylistPlus (GreasyFork) — bulk copy/move across playlists
- Many users maintain large Watch Later lists
Preferred behavior
- Keyboard shortcut to add/remove current video from Watch Later
- "Remove watched" button to clean up
- Sort by date added, popularity, length
- Export Watch Later as a plain-text list
- Smart: auto-remove videos after watching if older than N days
