How to restore YouTube default view?

I am running Firefox on a Windows 10 laptop and am thoroughly fed up with YouTube on it. The YouTube screen used to be on the left-hand side of my screen, with a vertical list of other videos down the right-hand side. When I wanted to view a video full screen, I selected that, in due course reverted to the default view, and all was sweetness and light.

Now, everything's bigger, with suggested videos displayed horizontally in threes, and if I click on one to watch it, it goes full width of the screen so I can only see the top three-quarters without scrolling.

It's driving me nuts. What have I done to bring this upon myself, and how do I get back to normal? I've got nowhere searching for the answer on Google :(

    In case it helps anybody else to know, I just solved my own problem by downloading Google Chrome and opening YouTube in that instead of using Firefox as normal. Seems to be working so far :)

    Fine on my Firefox, if everything has suddenly become bigger that usually means you've done page zoom by accident. You can reset it to 100% by pressing CTRL+0 (zero) while on the YouTube page.
