A simple Safari extension that replace the shitty YouTube player by the Safari's standard one, so restoring support for Airplay and Picture in Picture, while lightening the website, making it faster and less resource-hungry

What is Vinegar?

Vinegar is a Safari extension that replaces the YouTube player with a minimal HTML video tag.

It removes ads, restores picture-in-picture, and keeps videos playing in the background.

Note: The "can read information from webpages" text in the permission section is just unfortunate wording. Vinegar needs access to the web page to find the YouTube player and replace it. It's not doing anything creepy!
