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.0
