I used this script to get all the commits since latest release and asked ChatGPT to write the changelog :

Thanks to everyone that worked on this!

[backstab5983]

I thought it was patched? Did the No Icons bug came back?

Looks patched to me, can't reproduce.

[bhackel]

@JudeTheTechSavvyDude Can you export your AB settings and copy them into a pastebin/gist, maybe there is a flag for the issue

[JudeTheTechSavvyDude]

Should i uninstall it, then reinstall it, before i do the A/B

[bhackel]

I think not, since that may fix the issue, and I want flags that have the problem. Most of the settings should not interfere so no need to worry about that.

[JudeTheTechSavvyDude]

I think i fixed it already, it was a icon issue

[binnichtaktiv]

Thank you 🫶🏻 🫶🏻

How to "fullscreen to the right" - always emter fullscreen with home button on the right side?

It should automatically set the fullscreen to the right once you enter fullscreen while the option is enabled in settings. Is it not working?

Yes, it's not working. Did removing ytabconfig causing this?

[aricloverEXTRA]

Copy & Paste buttons were adding in qnblackcat's uYouPlus now which can be useful!

It's great that it's not only an uYouEnhanced/YTLitePlus-only feature.

[CSummerChild]

I didn't realize this until now, and I'll make an issue ticket soon. But when clicking on community images it won't show the full thing.

[bhackel]

Yes #265

[truemanfree]
