YouTube changed the description box below the video on the watch page.
This script tries to revert to the old proper description style layout as well as the one without the side bar.

Note:
Install if your description has changed to the compact version or the 'show more' button opens in a side bar and you want to bring it back.
There is no need to install this if you still have the original behavior (Unless you want to be prepared).

Additional:
In versions prior to 1.1.0 I had a wider description expander button (shown in screenshot 'after').
If you like it, you can install that as a new userstyle using Stylus extension,

here's the code:

#meta ytd-video-secondary-info-renderer, 
#primary #meta .desc_toggles { border-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.125); padding-bottom: 0; border-bottom: none; }
[dark] #meta ytd-video-secondary-info-renderer, 
[dark] #primary #meta  .desc_toggles { border-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.125); }

#meta ytd-expander.ytd-video-secondary-info-renderer, 
#meta ytd-expander.ytd-video-secondary-info-renderer > * { margin-left: 0; }
#meta .desc_toggles { width: 100%; border-top: 1px solid; border-radius: 0; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; margin-top: 1em; background: linear-gradient(rgba(0,0,0,0.02), transparent); }
[dark] #meta .desc_toggles { background: linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,0.02), transparent); }
#meta .desc_toggles:hover { background: rgba(0,0,0,0.03); }
[dark] #meta .desc_toggles:hover { background: rgba(255,255,255,0.03); }
#meta .desc_toggles .desc_text { margin: 0; padding: 4px; }

I urge anyone that downloads this script to send feedback directly to Youtube telling them that the new layout is hard to use and that you simply don't like the changes.
