I really liked your script Here's the code, converted to vanilla JavaScript and removing jQuery dependencies: (function() {
'use strict';

var getVideoTitle = GM_getValue("getVideoTitle", true);
var getVideoChannel = GM_getValue("getVideoChannel", false);
var getVideoURL = GM_getValue("getVideoURL", false);
var videoListSeperator = GM_getValue("videoListSeperator", "|:|");

var listCreationAllowed = true;
var urlAtLastCheck = "";

// Function to add a global style without jQuery
function addGlobalStyle(css) {
var head = document.head || document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
var style = document.createElement('style');
style.type = 'text/css';
style.appendChild(document.createTextNode(css));
head.appendChild(style);
}

// Insert CSS for the export button and list display
addGlobalStyle(`
tp-yt-paper-listbox#items { overflow-x: hidden; }
