Right Side Comments

Right Side Comments is a browser extension that moves YouTube comments to the right sidebar on watch pages, so the conversation stays next to the video instead of below it.

Behavior

• Extension — Turn the whole extension on or off (Ctrl+Shift+Y).
• Sidebar — Choose between the custom right-side comments layout, the built-in panel, or disabled.
• Expand description — Expand when the extension is enabled; collapse when disabled.
• Related videos — Show or hide related videos.

Advanced

• Fullscreen comments — Use YouTube's fullscreen comments button while fullscreen is active.
• Hide scrollbar — Hide scrollbars on the comments area. Supports inner (comments section) and outer (entire sidebar) scrollbars separately.
• Comments width — Adjust the width of the comments area (15-40%) for both Default and Built-in sidebar modes, with a local reset control.
• Compact comments — Tighter comment spacing.
• Static comment box — Keeps a fixed container in place while comments load, preventing UI layout shifts.
• Hide side margins — Remove spacing on the left and right sides of the video.

Shortcut

• Windows: Ctrl+Shift+Y.
• macOS: Command+Shift+Y.
• Linux: Ctrl+Shift+U.
