WONTFIX: Hide self-view in tile view

From WillowP:

Using Stylish:

Major plus 1 to this. I have a very hard time participating in calls with self-view on.

In regards to this comment:

I wonder if for at least those using a browser (not Electron app), this could be accomplished with a browser extension or Greasemonkey type script?

FWIW, a very simple workaround. In tile view, Jitsi has the "self view" in a span with id="localVideoContainer. I made a style for Stylish that hides it. Does not fix the screen space problem, but at least lets you breathe a sigh of relief at not looking in the mirror while on calls.

I've only tested on Firefox.

1. Install Stylish
2. Select "Create New Style" from breadcrumb dropdown.

3. Paste in this CSS and save:

#localVideoContainer {
    display: none;
}

You'll get a warning about not using ids in selectors, but it still seems to work fine.
