Description

This userstyle makes the YouTube Mobile web-app look like the old design

Notes

You can configure this userstyle to make YouTube look like how it did in:
-2021-2022
-2018-2021
-2015-2018
-2013-2015

Note: If you're using light theme on this userstyle, it is highly recommended to enable light theme on YouTube, and if you're using dark theme on this userstyle, it is highly recommended to enable dark theme on YouTube. To enable light or dark theme, go to the YT menu > Settings > Account > Appearance, then select your preferred option

Disclaimer: This userstyle will not work on iOS, due to there being no browser for it that supports chrome extensions

To use this userstyle on your phone, Kiwi Browser and Stylus are required, and you have to go to the Stylus extension, click on options, and enable "Instant inject mode", if this userstyle doesn't work
