Sidebar Toggle Firefox

Sidebar Toggle

Hide sidebars/top bars on Wikipedia, old Reddit, YouTube and GitHub to reclaim screen space. Plus a YouTube cinema-dim mode.

Features & Capabilities

Reclaim your screen. Sidebar Toggle hides the space-wasting sidebars and top bars on the sites where they get in the way, so the content you actually came for fills the window. Supported sites: • Wikipedia — hide the left navigation sidebar • old.reddit.com — hide the right sidebar and widen the posts • YouTube — hide the top bar and the left guide sidebar (just the videos) • GitHub — hide the global top navigation header Plus, on YouTube: a "cinema dim" mode that spotlights the player using YouTube's own theater view and blacks out everything around it — great for focused watching. It leaves your theater setting exactly as it found it. How it works: • Click the toolbar icon for the popup — toggle the current site, toggle cinema dim, and pick which sites the extension is active on. • Or use keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl+Shift+E to toggle the current site, Alt+E for YouTube cinema dim. (Firefox may show these as unset until you assign them under about:addons → Manage Extension Shortcuts.) • Your choices sync across your signed-in browsers. Private by design: no accounts, no tracking, nothing leaves your browser. Settings live in your browser's sync storage, and the extension can only touch the four supported sites.

Is Sidebar Toggle Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Sidebar Toggle requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Request access to the following domains: reddit.com, youtube.com, github.com
  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Sidebar Toggle is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
