For starters the behind the scenes code has been optimized so we shouldn't have as many server load issues. Also the double post issue can still show up, but it fixes itself instead of requiring a page request. Please try it out to make sure it's working for you.

At Pi's request, you can also now watch E3 streams and live comment on them from the same tab. Right below the thread name in live view, click "Pin a video" to pin any youtube video to the side of the screen. Now we can look like a video streaming site  ::)  Let me know if this helps you and if it's working in a useful manner.

This is actually pretty decent on mobile too.

I tried it on my phone and it was way too crowded.

On my phone it expands the whole thing a bit, I kind of have to scroll a little bit back and forth between the chat and the video, but it's totally doable.
It's not perfect, but it's a pretty sizable improvement over what we did before.
