YouTube element bugs
-
Recently I've been experiencing bugs on YouTube, for example, the like / dislike elements are hidden behind a video thumbnail. I cannot ignore the video either as the prompt doesn't show up. Along with this, I can't hit the "Watch Later" button on thumbnails. Sometimes the side bar messes up and doesn't show subscriptions. I'm not sure how to fix these bugs.

May a moderator lock this thread. I just found out how to solve it.

@spillproff It would be more useful for everyone if you tell us how you fixed it, but if you want I can delete the thread.

Here's the link I found that helped me fix the problem.
Here's another. (Actually helped for me)It'll revert to the old YouTube UI (no dark theme or anything like that) but it fixes the bug.

I installed this Youtube Classic - Restore Youtube Old Layout https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtube-classic-restore-y/aooobjmnokciopfgejdlbnklafighoaj?hl=en

Which is rather a workaround, than a fix. As if you had a problem with your car, but you revert it back to a bike.
Experience the same bug (like/dislike button hidden behind thumbnail) along with other
- not working "show more"-button on the left navigation
- blank user dropdown menu
and did some testing. - Tried the newest Snapshot 2.4.1462.4 and the 2.3 browser (latter fresh standalone install)
- Does not affect Chrome, Firefox, or Brave
- Has something to do with the "new" design (no problem on classic design, youtube.com/account or studio.youtube.com)
- Bug only appears with my oldest channel, that existed since the time your username was unique (2009? - tried my other channels, which have that alphanumeric code as its url)

I've had this problem too for the last two or three days. The drop down menus are blank or nonexistent, the sidebar is blank, and the buttons are either missing or do nothing. I'll use a workaround but I would prefer a fix.
-
That resolved marking got my hopes up for a moment.
Ah well, at least it's not just on my end. -
This definitely needs a fix on the Vivaldi end. It could be Google purposefully breaking things as Chrome still works on the same videos. I've also been having issues with Drive Sheets for the past month or so.

same bug here

I've had this exact issue for the past week. Is there still no fix to this? I'd rather not revert to an old version of YouTube, it's only a matter of time before they add a new feature and that breaks as well.
-
I have the same problem since three days ago. I use YouTube and Vivaldi a lot together and have all my bookmarks here and I do not want to settle for a work-around. Strange that I am two months late getting this issue.
Kind regards,
PatrickEDIT: Okay, my Vivaldi was outdated. An upgrade to the newest version fixed it.

After reading this thread, the question I have now is "Would it be fixed by Youtube or would it take some time before that happened?"
