22 hours ago hi and thanks! @Guildes So we can easily set this with one of Youtube's new Experiments, which you get only when logged in.
To try, you can Invert some in uBlock Origin's "my filters":
youtube.com##+js(set, enable_cairo_refresh_web, false)
youtube.com##+js(set, enable_cairo_refresh_signature_moments_web, false)
youtube.com##+js(set, enable_cairo_refresh_ringo2_web, false)
youtube.com##+js(set, ab_det_apb_b, false)
youtube.com##+js(set, kevlar_poly_si_batch_j020, true)
and if it helps, narrow down which one exactly?
2251 (adding 66 from your lists, we now know 1125 of these now)
It will be efficient if some people will help to name / explain them in the spreadsheet. And a developer will continue the code.
(Considering this single feature, we probably also can add some CSS to cover the new, the old and experiments
However you could set each of Youtube's experiment flags with the same code.
So it can be on top of this ImprovedTube's To-Do list)

Concise Description
There's a new youtube UI change in AB testing that is account-based and my account got selected for it with no way to turn it off, it adds a new style for the progress bar that has a red to magenta gradient instead of a solid color and it overrides the extension's custom color with the exception of the seeker dot
Also applies to watched videos' thumbnails
