Reverting the new YouTube layout #139

Many thanks for implementing my idea @ https://github.com/lawrencehook/remove-youtube-suggestions/issues/117!

I'm here with another request, I hope you don't mind, this is not acute, but it's about the new YT layout. I'm sure many of you have heard, or even seen the new experimental YouTube UI, here's an example: https://lifehacker.com/tech/how-to-undo-youtubes-terrible-new-layout

How about a toggle that switches back the YouTube to the old layout? There are userscripts and ublock origin filters that do it, but come MV3 at least the Ublock Origin filters will stop working as Ublock Origin Lite does not have a powerful custom filtering engine.

This is one project using userscripts to revert ithttps://github.com/garbhj/revert-youtube-layout-2024/tree/main I had a page with some ublock origin filtering code but I couldn't find it anymore...

How viable would it be to have code to revert the YouTube layout to the old one? Again I personally don't have the new layout, but I've seen many others that do have it
