This means when the page is reloaded, bookmarked or even visited in history, the current watch time gets preserved. + +I think Google already does this for you if you have an account, but I don't (and I don't think you should either.) + +## Installation + +1. Install Violentmonkey (untested on other userscript managers) +2. Click [here](https://github.com/ewy1/youtube-auto-timestamper/raw/refs/heads/master/youtube-auto-timestamper.user.js) to install this script. + +## Details + +* The script has a startup delay of ten seconds. This is to prevent it from mangling the URL when following links from `youtu.be`, where it would mangle the link and make the script (and site) stop functioning. + -- cgit v1.3
