Youtube 'Contains Paid Promotion' tag covers default location of the overlay

A fix would be to move it to the very top left corner.

A different way to solve it would be to allow you to move/drag the overlay even through the element somehow.

A third solution would be to have it remember the last location it was dragged to and always appear in that location on a video

Dragging it around is not a great idea, since it's a clickable thing, it opens it up to many accidents. It's also more troublesome to implement.

Setting manual x-y position in settings seems like a fair workaround. Optionally per-site, with prepopulated (say yt, the special snowflake) list.

I just came here to suggest the same thing (ish).

We use Microsoft Streams at work which tends to put text over the videospeed controls, and when videos are embedded I'm not always sure if the keyboard shortcuts are working.

I was going to suggest a simple Top-Left/Top-Right/Bottom-Left/Bottom-Right switch, but a manual x-y position would be great :)
