How do I change YouTube?
Bad title but previously on subscriptions or home, there would be 4 (or maybe 5?) videos per row. Now it's 3 and the thumbnails are bigger. It's very annoying cause I have to scroll more and I don't see the need to have the thumbnails be so large.
How do I revert it? I've tried zooming out but then all the text gets smaller which I don't want either.
Thanks!

Mine changed the same way and it's incredibly annoying. The thumbnails are unnecessarily large and you can see far less content per row/page. Also they changed it so that you can't middle click the (massive) thumbnail to open in a new tab, you have to specifically middle click the title. This is driving me crazy due to muscle memory. I'm so used to just middle clicking videos as I scroll through my subscriptions page and then watching them one by one after I've found everything new I want to watch. Middle clicking the thumbnail now puts it into auto scroll mode and the page scrolls up/down super fast and I lose my place.
It's pissing me off so much I might just look into seriously using Invidious or similar alternate front end for YouTube.
The middle clicking the thumbnail is a setting they defaulted to fucking you on. Live tile or something, that makes it play snippets if you hover over it. Turn that off and you can middle click again, although I have a friend who had the setting reset itself.
Oh, I never would have thought it was a setting. I thought they just changed the site. Yes I found it. It's in Settings, Playback and performance, Inline Playback. Toggle that off and it's back to normal. Thanks for that, you just made my day. Seriously you don't know how angry it made me every time I middle clicked lol
I know exactly how angry it made you as it took me 3 days to fix it.
Bastards removed like 90% of the click box for opening it.
Sounds like we're in the exact same situation lol. Please let me know if you end up using an alternate frontend and it works better!
