YouTube's new layout

[KongHarald]

So before yesterday when we watched a video in a small window the comment section was underneath and the recommended videos was on the right, it was perfect for someone like me because the comments had a lot of space and I often read comments when I'm listening to the audio.
But now they've flipped it around and the comments are cramped in a narrow space on the right and the recommended videos has a huge wide space underneath and it does my head in! Why the stupid change? Why? WHYYYYYYY?!
This is a long shot but: is there a possibility- an option deep into the settings where I can change it back to the good old perfect format?
Please.

I think youtube is testing it out, it happened to me as well but after a few days it reverted back to normal, tbh tho I got used to it quickly.

There'll be someone like you but with a programming background who'll make an extension reverting the change. Same thing happened with the removal of the dislike button. Odds are it won't be a Google feature, but an additive 3rd party extension

Oh there's a way to get the dislike button back? How?

Yep

They also started this annoying feature where if you aren't logged in and you go to the home page, there is literally nothing to see.

It still gathers data based on what you previously watched and uses it, but has a blank home page.

Why do people need to leave messages when watching cable tv 2.0?

Cable tv tells you all you need to know, and think, and do.

Nice! They should make that layout optional rather than force its users

For sure that would've been the best for everybody.
