Sometimes I need to watch a video on youtube.

Even if I quickly go fullscreen, there's enough time to be enticed by the algorithmically-addictive video on the side menu.

What browser magic can I most simply implement to hide the side menu?

There's an extension called "Redirector" which can pretty easily redirect links to Youtube videos to an Invidious instance of your choice instead with a rule like .*youtube.com/watch\?v=(.*) -> https://invidious.flokinet.to/watch?v=$1 (set it to pattern type "regular expression" if you use that one.)

It's strange that the Invidious UI is so much better, but until Google improves their version I feel justified in doing this.
