Webpage size has gone super size overnight

For at least a week now, BRAVE web pages appear much larger than they used to be. It is this way on both my laptop and desktop.
On my laptop the web page is supersized and shows part of the suggested videos as a ‘hint’ at the bottom of the page. Why is this and what can be done about it?

Expected result: Return to original size

That certainly is strange. Can you check another browser – MSEdge for example – and see if it displays as expected or if it is also oversized/zoomed in?

I tried it in Firefox and it’s the same.

Looks like YT is trialing out changes

Ahhh…that makes sense. It’s good to know. It IS ugly and hard to work with. Looks like others don’t like it either! Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah and if you’re seeing other web pages appear this way in other browsers then it’s either an extension you have installed in both browsers causing the issue or it is (more likely imo) an OS setting that you may have inadvertently changed.

Thank you for your input. I haven’t installed any extensions or changed settings on both computers. I think that its YT in some cases. Perhaps its a MS update?!
