- (2025-06-30) Quantascopic: Thank you for this Extension !! Youtube makes their own site worse and worse , no clue what these people think... This Extension reverts the most stupid decisions of the youtube managers ..
- (2025-06-25) Nash Hallett: 5 stars bro I can finally get a nostalgic feeling again
- (2025-06-24) daniel: update: so far amazing!!! i dont know if yall fixed the icon player issue but it does look fixed, thanks so much :-)
- (2025-06-24) Kieran Farrell: love this!! Goes well with my Windows XP style Windows 11
- (2025-06-18) Patrick Mason: It's good, but it could use more accessibility options. I would highly suggest an option that lets you toggle the text size. There's also a minor bug with the interface when viewing playlists that you created, where the "Sort - | All | Videos | Shorts" top menu bar is cut off at the bottom and looks rather ugly.
- (2025-06-18) singer: When i press "view my channel" i see new buttons please fix it!
- (2025-06-16) Rabekah W.: i like it. i just wish we could choose which layout we wanted. for a while i was using custom tube with the 2011 layout and i really loved that layout. with this one it seems like there's only one layout. still cool though.
- (2025-06-14) Shadow Flame: For the past 2 weeks now I would say, the Search Bar has been the same as the current Youtube layout (like when you click on the Search bar and type the layout is different). So if you could fix it that would be great.

- (2025-06-02) deidra croom: THIS NEW VERSION IS TERRIBLE. I NEED OLD VERSION. WHEN SOMETHING IS NOT BROKE PLEASE DON'T TRY TO FIX IT
- (2025-05-29) KyloZach: Hits me so much with nostalgia, feels like when YouTube is great again! I also used an extension to remove Shorts cause there's no point in them. Works amazing man!
- (2025-05-26) Filip Filip: Based
- (2025-05-22) Lele Tay: This works!! I love it!! Thx for your service <3333
- (2025-05-21) Trent: Really does bring back the old look
- (2025-05-15) Reverent Evzheniy: 10/10. Makes Youtube great again.
- (2025-05-15) Gabriel Glorioso: my only complaint is that this does not work with Annotations Restored for YouTube™ PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN AND MY LIFE IS YOURS
- (2025-05-15) Pøkémøn Néa: Great! I've used it for a while! can you fix the loading symbol. Sorry about the stupid request, I just hate the new one...
- (2025-05-12) CoolDude65: DUDE, please add a "Hide Views, Comments, Likes, Dislikes, Subscribers Count" thing, and this'll be 5 stars!
- (2025-05-11) Rafael: The best extension for YouTube ever made! It's so nostalgic to use YT with the old layout... It feels much better than the modern design.
- (2025-05-10) KilledbyCrit: perfect!
- (2025-05-07) Retarded Monkey: only works on the home page and not subscriptions which makes it worthless
- (2025-05-07) ash s: Looks so Good!!!
- (2025-05-04) Jared Turton: Very good extension, much prefer this over the new youtube UI. Only minor gripe I have is that the small player uses the same screen size ratio as my monitor (21:9) when it should be 16:9, and it makes the small player a bit too small.
- (2025-04-28) Gods Buffoon: Pretty much needed now since I can't see anything on Youtube with it's moronically massive thumbnails.
- (2025-04-22) TheSystemGuy128: Another victim of YouTube and Google's unlawful electronic jamming. It does "work", but there's MANY issues as YouTube is actively attempting to jam and block this extension.
- (2025-04-17) Marlone Dantas: After the terrible update of YouTube, this extension became essential even though I only use the number of videos per Row.
- (2025-04-16) Взрывной Пит: сидел на версии 3.4, ютуб выкатил какую то плашку в верху главной страницы, решил обновиться, думал исправит, мало того что не исправило, так ещё и оказалось что на новой версии не работает функционал раздела Hide features, не работает полностью, включай не включай, ютуб всё равно всё показывает
- (2025-04-16) Maxxy: Works well for awhile, and it still works greatly now! Edit: As if April 15th, 2025, it still works amazingly :)
- (2025-04-14) Stichting NoFap: Some features that used to be squares in old yt are still round with the extension, such as the likes/dislikes, the share button, and the description box. Edit: just adding the theater mode where the space above is still dark, while enabling light mode. It used to be light above the player in old yt.
- (2025-04-08) Sinbad: it's great but sometimes when i'm watching a video, the ui looks kinda weird and everything is pushed to one side
- (2025-04-07) William Chapman: A amazing extension that enables a lot of features and customizability, although there could be bugs here and there that can ruin the experience. My "bug" or issue is that when I enable the dislike feature, it somehow gets rid of the shuffle playlist button for playlists and ceases to exist anymore. And no, it doesn't even appear under the 3 dots tab.
- (2025-04-05) szaronkox: It's great but I would like the option to have the save to playlist option under the video and not have to press the 3 dots to get access to it
- (2025-04-01) tubrujapiruja: The extension is great, but when I see a channel's banner, it bugs and starts blinking strangely. I hope they fix that in the future. The rest is very clean and perfectly imitates the old YouTube style.
- (2025-03-28) Tornadonate studios: AWESOME SAUCE
- (2025-03-25) Anthony Davis: I have been using this for a little over a year and I love it. It is so nice being able to make youtube look how it did before they changed everything.
- (2025-03-21) Maja Misak: Best addon ever! With more and more annoying changes youtube implements every few months.. each and every one making it look worse for PC users.. this finally makes youtube bearable again!!
- (2025-03-15) Marek Němec: THIS THING IS AWSOME AND NOSTALGIC AF THX SO MUCH
- (2025-03-13) E 123poo: Can you make it so you can filter out videos released after a specific date? Like if i only wanted to see videos before 2020, than i could type the date in and only see videos before 2020. Other than that great extension.
- (2025-03-09) VORVE: i am cry
- (2025-03-09) Backup Account: i like it, but i wish that you're able to toggle seeing how long ago a video is in the recommended videos section
- (2025-03-06) slade edge: unfotunately doesnt work anymore :( youtube sent this to the mf shadow realm so that it could use 1.1 gb of my memory every time i open the page.
- (2025-02-26) Dylan Reinecke: Absolutely fantastic extension. Youtube's layout changes are garbage, so this is what I've been rocking for years. I just wish it could disable youtube shorts entirely.
- (2025-02-24) Lab Specimen: beautiful; love love love thsank you new youtube is hellsite.
- (2025-02-16) Lego Savant: was cool back in 2021, but if you are truly looking for an old youtube solution that works on old browsers, use v3 instead it is not available on chrome store, but firefox store and manual download
- (2025-02-13) august: Ya Baha'ulla Abha this is beautiful i think you sososososo much, God bless everyone who makes thinks for the betterment of others
- (2025-01-09) Jessica S. (darkocean): Youtube is so clean and sleak again, thank you! I request that annoying next button be hidden too, please! I tend to click it by mistake when I'm pausing/unpausing a video and have to go back then restart the video all over ugg! Make the next buton go away. Tks.
- (2025-01-08) Aditya Choudhary: Amazinnnng !!!! extension love the simple and minimalist youtube with some tweaks. It would be nice edition if you guys just add rounded corner option for channel avatar everywhere
