Bring back the WATCHED overlay to the videos you have already watched on youtube.

Bring back the WATCHED overlay to the videos you have already watched on youtube. Youtube removed the watched tag, and added a red progression bar on the bottom that doesn't function properly. With this style you will get the WATCHED label back.

Installation: Using Stylus (Firefox/Chrome) install this css script (User Style). Then adjust the settings using the UI.

IMPORTANT: The css script relies on the red progress bar on the thumbnails. If Youtube displays it, the script will do its job. Additionally, please make sure you are not hiding the red bar by other means.

NOTE: Does not work with shorts at this time. YouTube doesn't provide any kind of identifiers to shorts.

Other scripts you may like:

YouTube - Proper Description

YouTube - Shorts Redirect

YouTube - Stay Active and Play Forever

YouTube - Pause background videos
