YouTube broke fullscreen on mobile somehow
when you fullscreen a video that isn't your device's aspect ratio the background is now gray instead of solid black
I'm pretty sure this is a bug because it makes fullscreen video look really bad on OLED devices

@pancakes if you use YouTube on computer and the video doesn’t match your aspect ratio (I have a 3:2 laptop, so the answer is EVERY video) then the pillar/letterbox matches a vague, dark shade of whatever is on screen. I presume to help with contrast or something.

So I wonder if it is an extension of that.
