Well looks like the final days of classic youtube... you'll be missed my friend.

Update 1.0.10: Remove the "classic youtube is going away" banner.

This script was created because my youtube scripts (Youtube Play Next Queue and Youtube Search While Watching Video) originally didn't work with the new youtube redesign. But you can certainly also use this for other scripts that only work with the old classic youtube.

Important: This script uses Cookies so make sure that you allow them!

If you want to use modern youtube again:

  1. Disable/Remove this script
