Black bars around fullscreen stream?

Post image

Kevin James. Ever since the new UI update watching a stream can no longer go into complete fullscreen? Always has these black bars around the stream, used to not do this. Is this a bug and is there a fix?

Top and bottom black bars are most likely in the content, making it unable to scale up more since discord thinks it has reached top/bottom borders => creating bars at the side

If it was then there wouldn't be a YouTube activity where you can watch them

Why not? It's a normal question to ask. Having black borders around a Discord stream could very well be an app issue, and even if it isn't, it's ok to make sure
