If youtube is in the new 2017 YouTube Material Redesign, automatically restore classic view
< Feedback on Youtube - Restore Classic
Hey 1shoot100commies,
The Youtube Old Layout script used the exact same code as this script, so I reported it (it is against the rules of greasyfork). However that the users who installed that script automatically get my script after its removal... I don't really know why that happened. I definitely didn't ask for that to happen, maybe the other userscript author didn't remove my update url.
As for why the script suddenly stopped working, I don't really know. I've read a lot of articles and reddit threads but nothing that I can really use to fix this script.
Please read the description of this script, maybe the User-Agent trick works for you.
Sincerely, Cptmathix
New workaround available (tested as working)...

That script was a (100%?) direct copy of yours. When such trolls do that to original scripts, the moderators now redirect the fake url to the original. Poetic justice, isn't it! :D (I don't know if the member is banned or just warned against doing such again.)
BTW the UA spoofing is working for me. A lifesaver until the classic template is fully removed from Youtube's servers.
