Doesn't turn off comments on Shorts, which I would argue qualify as "YouTube Comments". They are also the more vile of the three variants of comment sections.

Melvin MacDonald·15 Sept 2026

doesn't work good enough. only hides the chat section, doesn't close it. the video still doesn't use that available space.
