If you're on android this manager has a bunch of prepatched apps, be sure to install microG first.

Also worth noting, what breaks for Youtube integration usually seems to be on Youtube's side, meaning every player is affected.

If you're using uBlock on Firefox you can shift right click on it and then choose block in frame. Use the preview mode and move the sliders back and forth until you get your desired result.

Is this a browser? Mobile? If you're on Android, Morphe or Revanced can do this. But you need to download the manager and patch your own app, or it's not safe. Do not directly download something claiming to be a patched version of YouTube.

The Unhook browser extension is pretty good, though I needed to add some Ublock rules once in a while. They don't always update super fast after Youtube adds new addiction triggers.

Maybe unhook browser extension can do this for you. Generally good for debloating youtube.
