    #enable-immersive-fullscreen-toolbar flag does work to restore the old functionality of showing the toolbar in fullscreen only upon mouse hover. However, there is a bug where the top 40px of all websites do not receive mouse clicks in this mode (macOS 10.14.6)

  • yup, not a solution right now. stack itself is hard to use with this flag enabled. Commented Jan 2, 2020 at 16:36
  • note: Since Chrome ~71, this flags have been removed. There's no way to recover this old behavior it seems.

  • following up to my previous comment - the 40px bug I described is gone by now (Chrome 88, macOS 10.15.7) so this is usable once again chrome://flags/#enable-immersive-fullscreen-toolbar
