After the Maxthon browser, some could get acquainted with the regular reading mode Windows users 8. With this operating system a browser was supplied Internet Explorer 11, the Metro tablet version of which provides a simple reading mode.

At the end of April 2017, a black YouTube design was presented to a special group of testers, running on a faster and more convenient Polymer engine. After conducting these tests, and studying user reviews, the developers closed access to the "night mode", leaving those who did not have time to try the innovation with nothing. In this article, I will try to help such users and tell you how to make YouTube design in black, and what methods will help us with this.
We figure out how to enable the test "night mode" on YouTube
Since after the tests, the developers quickly curtailed the ability to make youtube black(promising the activation of this functionality in the future), then users have two main tools to activate this function, namely:
In the first case, the activation of the "night mode" was carried out by going to the YouTube website, preferably in the Google Chrome browser (you must have a YouTube account and be logged into it). Then it was necessary to press the key combination Ctrl + Shift + I (enabling developer mode in the browser), in the window that opens, switch to the console tab, and enter one of the following lines in it, remembering to then press "Enter":
document.cookie="VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=fPQ4jCL6EiE"
document.cookie="PREF=f6=4;path=/;domain=.youtube.com"
document.cookie="VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=fPQ4jCL6EiE; path=/"
After that, it was necessary to refresh the page, click on the icon of your YouTube account (there should have been an activation / deactivation lever for Night Mode). And move this lever to the on state (in some cases, the choice also helped of English language instead of Russian in the YouTube settings at the bottom before entering the line in the console).
Activation of the "night mode" is carried out by switching the corresponding lever At the moment, the specified functionality is not active (the reader can independently try to use the mentioned toolkit for verification). Therefore, the user is left with the application various extensions for the browser, allowing you to easily and conveniently switch to Night Mode.

You can try using the console to enter the appropriate commands (activation via Ctrl+Shift+I). And also install extensions from Chrome or Opera extension stores and add-ons (since Yandex.Browser also uses the Chromium engine, these extensions should suit it well).
Switching to YouTube night mode in Yandex.Browser is no different from other browsers on the Chromium core Conclusion
In this article, I have reviewed various ways how to convert youtube design to dark color. An effective and efficient method of changing the design to black is to use various browser extensions that make it easy to use on this resource"night mode".
