About Sav's Hottest — YouTube extension

Hottest adds a new sorting button to the row alongside Latest, Popular, and Oldest on any YouTube channel's Videos tab. YouTube lets you sort a channel by newest, most popular, or oldest — but never by what's genuinely "hot": videos that pulled strong view counts relative to how long they've been up. Hottest fills that gap. Click "Hottest 🔥" and the channel's videos are re-ranked by a hotness score that blends total views with upload recency, each video labelled with a 0–100 rating. A slider lets you bias the ranking toward recency or toward raw views, updating live as you drag. • Works on any channel's Videos tab • Tunable recency-vs-views balance • A 0–100 hotness score on every video • Runs entirely in your browser — no account, no sign-in, no data collected Hottest is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube or Google.
