Full Screen Issues on Mac

Browser Support Desktop Support
1

Long time Firefox user. Just moved all my browsing to Brave. One thing is a real pain and not sure if I can change it.

I have three screens (my main iMac screen and one extra each side).

In Firefox, if I click to full screen a YouTube video, it full screens it ON THAT SCREEN, with my other screens still available. However in Brave it goes into that HORRIBLE Mac OS full screen thing where the video goes full screen but switches to a new desktop, meaning the other two screens are blank.

I do a lot of tutorial watching while I edit stuff in other programs, I can’t do that any more :frowning:
Any idea if this is something I can change so that clicking full screen only applies to that one screen?
thanks
