While we're on the subject of youtube annoyances: are there any extensions that disable "ambient mode?"

This infuriating feature provides nothing useful and absolutely murders Apple Silicon GPUs, draining the battery very, very quickly.

I remember there was a toggle in the player settings to disable Ambient Mode, have they removed that option ?

I have never seen it turn itself back on after disabling it once.
