Trivially simple script to automatically decrease the horizontal margins on the chat and video containers on hextube. By default both left and right margins are 15px per container. I set them to 1px for a 56px gain in chat and video viewing area. It's free real estate.

What is ViolentMonkey?

ViolentMonkey is an open source browser extension and small alternative to GreaseMonkey or TamperMonkey. It can run custom JavaScript in your browser for you automatically to modify page behavior. If you install the extension you can create a new script and copy and paste the one I wrote above. Always beware of installing untrusted scripts that you don't understand.

    Every which way I try it it works.

    Best I can suggest is to go to the address about:profiles and create and launch a new profile in Firefox to test with. That's functionally a completely blank slate without touching your existing stuff. Install violentmonkey, copy the script, visit movies and see if it works. If it does, then you somehow have a conflict with either a setting or an extension or something else that I can't guess at.

      I just tried it with a fresh firefox install and it works, sorry for bugging you. I guess it's something with my install or extension.

        Np, I hope you pinpoint the cause
