Overview
The secret ingredient for a older (and better) looking YouTube.
PlayerTube is a free browser extension that is used for editing and changing up the style of the current YouTube player, to a more older (and better) look. PlayerTube has a good amount of features that can be either enabled or disabled from its menu. More than that, users can customize the style of their player and share it across the web for others to use. Latest update (v1.7.2): * Quick update to fix an issue with fake bar toggle not working.

It's good, but a major flaw is that in my case, it seems that the player is a little too high and therefore when you watch a video a small part of the top sticks out. This then means that you see the video progressing live, which I'm quite sure is not how it went in the past (unless the dev can correct me on this and this was the intention). Even before the bar moves down when watching a video, you see the bar is a little too high and there's a gap between the video and the bar at its bottom.... Show more

The part of the player that you're seeing when watching a video is not due to the player being too big, this is a feature that can be disabled called, "Fake bar", and can be toggled via the extension's settings under, "Toggle the fake bar that displays below a video when not active" -- very straight-forward on what it does. Past versions of the YouTube player had a similar feature, which is why there are other developers who try to make this feature return and why it's in PlayerTube. edit: Just fixed the issue with the toggle for fake bar not working, this will be published soon

Please read the "Extension Support" page found in the extension when going from "Release Notes" and then using the navigation at the top of the page! Reading this will most likely solve your issue. This page is also mentioned when first installing, so please read it after installing! If there is still an issue, please send over a issue report on the GitHub! https://github.com/ktg5/PlayerTube/issues

It's a bit broken, especially the 2006 player. In any case, it's better than a modern, flat player :)
