  Watching YouTube on a small screen without fullscreen is painful, the player is tiny with empty space all around it.
  
  This extension fixes that:
    • Makes the player fill the available width
    • Compacts the right-side recommendations sidebar
    • Slims the top nav bar for more vertical space
    
  Only active on youtube.com/watch pages. No data collected, no settings, no account needed.
