Matthew Roughton (ArbestRiAgain) (ID: 000000fed16b5145) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/02/2024 Compared to YT Redux this is BASED. It does a lot better job at replicating the HitchHiker layout than YT Redux, with the channel icon placement, the sidebar, icons and much more! One winking button to make YouTube look better! EDIT: Some Tampermonkey scripts and custom CSS for a more classic looking player makes this infinitely better than stock.
