    i know the dark mode has a problem but i only use light mode so i rate 5 star. and it also makes youtube load much faster

    me encanta que aun hayan hecho hasta los detalles mas pequeños, espero que sigan arreglando y actualizando cosas como por ejemplo la interfaz de usuario y arreglar el bug de del icono del corazon que se ve un poco mal, pero aun asi respeto el tiempo que llevaria hacer esto, espero que lo sigan continuando :)

    Good simple addon. but lacks dark mode support.
    Saw that you had other recommendations in the description.
    Try out my script:

    It already have a neat watched videos function as your upcoming version mentions

    Half works and is buggy, Home page scrolls forever with just a list of videos, channel pages dont work either, the video pages and layout is still the new pos. Hopefully everything will be fully working soon and I will come back

    This is the only addon that actually works and I really like it. The only thing I have problems with is when I enable the YouTube darkmode.
  • by lightbeam, 4 years ago
    A very promising addon! I realize that it's still a work in progress so not everything will be 100%. Man is it nostalgic to see YouTube without all the oversized icons again. Unfortunately dark mode seems to have some issues so I'll have to disable for now, but if it gets fixed I'll definitely be using this!

    Nice recreation of classic layout!
    There are still things to polish but it's very good.

    The add-on does not work in private mode, even if you enable cookies, 78.6.1 Firefox ESR browser

    I don't know what you're talking about, on my side it works perfectly fine. Perhaps you just didn't allow the extension to run in private mode? See here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/extensions-private-browsing

    Firefox-53. Не работает совсем. Исчезает V в настройках вашего расширения. Ставил V в 2-х местах. И на панели задач в иконке "Classic YouTube Desing" и в "Управлении Дополнениями" > "Расширения" > "Classic YouTube Desing".

    In the settings of this extension, I cannot save the "V" icon in (Activate Classic YouTube Design). The "V" icon disappears when the page is reloaded in the cell (Activate Classic YouTube Design) is empty again. Accordingly, nothing changes on page YouTube.

    I think Firefox 53 doesn't support the chrome.storage.sync API yet which is used for storing the settings. But why are you even using such an outdated browser? If it's purely because of the old XUL extensions, I'd recommend Waterfox Classic: https://www.waterfox.net/download#classic. It's based on Firefox 56 and gets all the latest security patches!

    Can you give me more details here in the issue tracker? https://github.com/Cicero-Interactive/Classic-YouTube-Design/issues

    Edit: I just fixed a bug which sometimes, especially on slow machines, has overwritten my injected styles with the default YouTube styling again. Now it should work!

    The dark mode seems to be working on my end and even if I can't benefit from the better bandwidth usage anymore, at least I can actually see the video thumbnails on the side of a video. The polymer layout can suck my-

    Dark mode is currently not supported. It kind of works, but has many bugs. Proper support should come with v0.2.2 (I would say March at the latest).
  • by Jupee, 4 years ago
    Love the concept! It's already better than normal layout, much more desktop friendly. Needs some work though.

    Example dark mode is unusable, some links/texts are not visible, are same color as the background.

    And video player default view could be smaller, like it used to be. Currently default view is pretty much same size as theater mode, awful change from Google.

    Love the idea, hopefully you keep updating this and making it even better.

    Yep, dark mode is currently not supported. But it's in the backlog, should be there with v0.2.2 (I would say March at the latest). Support for more pages (like the search page) will arrive next month ;-)
