What do your user scripts do if you don't me asking?

On a site note: Been looking for one to show reccomendations always based on simmiliar vids, not my recently watched and whatever the black box algorithm is offering me. Unfortunately I never figured out how do it properly, since the position of the element seems to be random and sometimes straight up missing.

The YouTube ones?

1. Prevents channel page video from auto-playing (not mine)

2. Removes the stupid custom scrollbar that takes up actual pixels on my screen at all times

3. Automatically sets highest available video quality by clicking through the quality menu so I don't have to

And those are in addition to SponsorBlock and uBlock Origin extensions.

I made one for youtube that moves the seek bar below the video, instead of on top of the video. In addition it removes the gradient etc. I've always hated how it covered up the content. (pure css, but still)

The one that switches off the comments section makes the platform quite a bit more pleasant

I use one to redirect youtube shorts pages to the regular youtube UI. Also one for old.reddit.
