Awesome, first script i found that actually works!

Does it still work? It keeps loading new videos automatically, even though button is there. I'm looking for that feature on subscriptions page and cant find a single thing that works :(

It works. Thank you.

Not Working anymore on chrome, installed it with tampermonkey
