It turns out it was my fault after all.

Andy got it right about zoom level, but then I blamed Firefox for
copying zoom levels from other tabs. It does that but I haven't figured
out the rules yet.

But I see that in this case I did it directly. My eyes are not as good
as before maybe, and I have the laptop farther away sometimes, and so to
see them well, I zoom on the youtube comments, and sure enough, a couple
days ago, I did it again. I zoomed so much that the comments were below
17 pages of video suggestions. I think I didn't notice this when I
first did it because I didn't scroll up a page at a time. Must have
gone straight to the top, or left that tab and didn't come back.

So thank you all for your help. And again to Andy for getting it right.

So far this has only affected my win11 computer and not either of the
win10 ones.

I highly doubt it's the Win11-ness causing that; mine doesn't do it in >>Firefox or Edge, I don't think you can even try to "pull-the-wool" over >>YouTube's eyes, because there's no distinction in the browser
user-agent: between win10 and win11 ...

One would think I would have learned by now to do more testing before >posting. For several days I coudln't find the comments at all, and I >googled Where are the youtube comments. I found posts from months
before the problem started for me, one that said they are to the right,
but mine were not. I waited several days and looked at a dozen videos;

What I did not do is try Edge or Chrome and it works as it used to in
both of them, even in win11.

So the problem seems to be not for everyone but for me with Firefox. So
I've added firefox to ng list, and for them reposted the original
question, but modified since the question has changed.

Youtube format
It seems Google/Youtube have rearranged youtube's format, so if you want
to see comments, you have to scroll down 17 screen to get to them,

At least in Firefox in win11, though not in Chrome or Edge in win11, or >Firefox in two win10 computers.

One used to have to scroll down about 1 screen to see the comments. The >extra 16 screens in win11 are filled with previews of videos you could
watch, that used to be about 1 square inch in a column on the right, Now
they are 4 inches wide and proportionally as high, and only two fit
on a page horizontally and 1 vertically. I occasionally go back and
forth between the video and the comments and I want the otld format
back!

CTRL-0 should reset the zoom level to 100%.
