Choose among YouTube layouts from different years with StarTube, a userscript designed for the V3 client.
About Extra Themes
StarTube is an open-source userscript that lets you choose your YouTube layout. It is designed to work with Vorapis 2013 (V3), a separate YouTube client that restores the 2013-2014 YouTube layout. StarTube is described as the successor to CustomTube and supports almost every layout from 2008 to 2024.
To use it, you first install V3, then install the StarTube script with a userscript manager such as Tampermonkey on Firefox, Edge, or Chrome. The project offers regular, Beta, and Legacy versions, with Legacy intended only for older browsers when the regular version does not work. Settings are accessed through the userscript manager icon in the browser toolbar, and you refresh the page to apply layout changes.
StarTube suits people who already use or plan to use V3 and want to switch between older YouTube layouts. It requires some setup, so it fits users who are comfortable installing a client and a userscript.
