About this extension
Cuts YouTube down to the essentials so the video stays front and center.
• It removes distracting UI like the sidebar, notification bell, create button, voice search, premium promos, and home-page category chips. Subscriptions
becomes a cleaner feed without extra section headers like "Latest" and "Most relevant."
• On watch pages, videos automatically open in theater mode and expand to fill the screen, while the masthead stays hidden until you move near the top.
• Created by a guy who watches a lot of YouTube, and couldn't find an Addon that made all of the changes that I wanted. Enjoy! 😊
