I just bought an M2 Mac Mini running Ventura 13.2, and I'm having a problem that never occurred on my old Intel Mini. When I open a YouTube video under Chrome (the current stable version), half the time the screen will open in a kind of "zoom" effect, with the image blown up larger than its native size, cutting off the edges of the image and omitting the controls along the bottom of the screen. If I refresh the page, the image corrects itself. So far I can't seem to duplicate this issue in Safari, so does Ventura just not like the current version of Chrome or something? I've tried clearing the chrome browsing data, restarting chrome, and restarting the Mini, but the problem persists....

I'd be happy to watch YouTube on Safari, but I'm not interested in upgrading to the premium version just to skip the annoying ads. (I don't see the ads in Chrome, presumably thanks to my AdBlocker extension.)

Nope, it isn't that. It's some wierdness occurring between YouTube and Chrome. I think. Maybe the next update to either program will fix it. Sigh.
