PROBLEM:

It bothers me to be scrolling and have a massive black bar go across my entire screen the entire time, such as this
image

SOLUTION:

Make the background of this as transparent as the "transparent header" option, having the options float there (or cluster together with the header a bit better while scrolling).

ALTERNATIVES:

A good alternative to this would have this entire section be static on the page, staying at the top while you're scrolling. That way, it stays out of the way, but retains full functionality.

Another option would be to make these smaller and more compact in general, and clustered with the header only on the homepage.

RELEVANCE / SCOPE:

It'd be likely that many people would prefer this to the alternative of having a massive black bar across their screen; but at the same time, I'm really not sure how universal this issue is.

"SIDE EFFECTS":

It's probably unlikely anyone would care, it's a very small feature and obviously optional.

CONTEXT:
// I'm only requesting this as it seems impossible to remove this with UBlock Origin without ALSO removing the ability to select video genres.
Thank you!

SHORT Table (Summary)
Problem Obstructive black bar
Solution Make it transparent
Alternatives Make it smaller
Scope Universal if common
Side effects Basically none
Context Can't be done with UBlock
