Forces YouTube to open the player in theater mode (full-width mode) even if you are logged out
This extension enables YouTube to default to theater mode for the player, even if you're not logged in

It's important to note that the theater mode activated by the extension is authentic and not achieved through CSS or JS tricks; it uses YouTube's actual theater mode

The extension employs two methods to ensure the player is in theater mode: 1
It sets the relevant cookie on each visit
2
It triggers the necessary button press when the player loads
