This, combined with the new trialed layout that puts videos below the video and comments on the side, just feels like they're trying to turn Youtube into TikTok.

I really hate it.

at least with ublock origin you can still go back to the old format if you are forced to the new one

in my filter, i think if you are using ublock lite inside chrome you have to toggle some setting to run custom scripts not sure still using origin on firefox
