Do you like the new layout?
They only changed a few fonts
>>62164727
when it was in beta it didn't work for me, luckily the actual changed layout works fine
>>62164727
Yep, dark mode is godly
But I feel like they made some buttons too large, maybe due to touch screen?
>>62164727
I like 2016 compact design more
Everything is bigger, and there is more white space. I wish we could get websites designed for desktop again.
>>62164727
If I cared then I would be using a custom css. But I don't care. But I do care enough to post ITT.
>>62164727
Kinda, but I feel like I'll have to mess with CSS a bit to bring the sizes of some elements down, this shit wastes way too much space for pointless margins..
reminder: a nigger made the new layout.
1. the white background is shit since the red colour is way too bright
2. they're introducing a darker version
what are they trying to manipulate your subconscious with this? white bad, dark good. really makes you think.
>>62165292
please take your meds
>>62164727
Don't care, I always watch Jewtube vidyas in mpv instead anyway.
>>62165292
>white bad, dark good
On computer screens, this is literally true, though.
>>62165292
>white bad, dark good.
Rather, the meaningless background is dark, and the elements that matter are white.

same old flaws with only slightly different look, now with less contrast where is needs to be, more contrast where it looks terrible and even more JS so it makes it slower and you need to have it turned on for the site to even load

Best way to watch videos is to rewrite address to youtube.com/embed/videocode to enjoy real full window (or player+youtube-dl). Best feed is RSS which was quite hard to find because they don't officially support it anymore.
>>62165319
This.
>>62164727
What "new" layout? It hasn't changed for me at all.
>>62164727
The same shit, just slightly shittier. Thankfully nothing has been altered too much to break any userscripts or stylish sheets.
>>62165292
Excuse me sir, I happen to be an African-American and that word is very offensive.
Leaked next design
>>62164727
Too much JS
The night mode is pretty nice
>>62168121

There were already a million Stylish skins that could do the same thing

>YouTube
Ahh, yes, Soros, I love the new design!
>how many suggestions do you want per page?
>>62164727
At least their color design team is "diverse".
>>62165292
>le diverse people
>le diverse (shitty) ideas
Memes aside, is that why web design has gotten so shitty over the past couple of years?
Is it because of the hiring of those people?
>>62165292
>white bad, dark good. really makes you think
yeah, the way it was for the first 30 fucking years of terminals until muh windoze came along and whitewashed everything
You used to be able to add comments to videos on your own playlists, and the comments are.. gone? Is there a way to bring them back?
>>62164727
I really don't mind it at all. People will bitch about just about anything I suppose.
>add an option to supposedly go back to the old layout
>doesn't actually do anything
Is this some kind of psychology experiment?
>>62165292

It's just as likely HR hired some actor to play the role of a tech industry worker.

>>62164727
You can revert back to the old layout
Nope
>>62167980
>what is
gaming.youtube.com ?
>>62164727
No, but I'm so tired getting my jimmies rustled over every little change they do that I'm just gonna bite the bullet and not even revert back to the old layout, but instead embrace this new garbage design.

>>62164727
It's actually terrible.
Material design is shit, how do we stop it? If this trend continues, websites will be 80% whitespace in a few years
I miss the 2006 layout where the description was always to the right of the video
The new layout is about 80% bigger for elements on my device.
My subscriptions list on the sidebar only has about 3 items on the first display, compared to the old one which fit maybe around 10.
YouTube channel pages only show the pinned video trailer on the main screen, usually this fits a couple videos under it.
I'm pretty fine with it, I just would like it a bit more compact
>>62173408
No I think they got rid of annotations because of abuse

I used to add the video titles on playlist as comments all the time, they really removed it? I already switched back to the old layout before checking
fuck
>>62164727
everything feels large and zoomed in, like its ment for mobile users only
>>62164727
No, such a waste of space.
Also broke all my plugins, glad they have a "restore old YouTube" option.

aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh
>>62168121
Why is that shade of red so bright?
>>62168121
Agreed, goes well with my atmosphere lighting, a change of logo, a custom user script edit to fix >>62169402 and I'm satisfied for now.
>>62174298
True, I was doing that since 2010 but stopped because like always eventually they in a way force everyone to adapt and remove the option to have "previous/old YT design" and user styles only go so far. All the people using the revert option are just delaying the inevitable. This isn't anything new.
>>62177856
What plugins? I found Youtube Center (Dev) caused more harm than good.
>>62177985
new Youtube logo
>>62178183
I'm aware of that, but it literally hurts to watch.
>>62178191
Yeah I know... terrible decisions all around.

>>62178228
thanks
i like that i can zoom in without it introducing horizontal scroll now.
Whatever they did to the site, I hate. Youtube is completely broken and unusable for me now. The front page works, but when I click on a video, it only loads partially. If I refresh I can get the video to load, but that's literally ALL that loads. The description, suggested videos, comments, everything but the video is gone. And I can't figure out what is causing it. If I knock Firefox back to factory defaults it works, but I can't use factory default Firefox.
>>62178274
Well clearly your extensions, userscripts/styles are fucking it up, what do you expect?
>>62178284
I feel like an idiot. I had checked my extensions to see if one of them was messing with youtube, but completely forgot I had an old greasemonkey script that messed with the site. Thanks for reminding me.
>>62178320
YW.
Anyone have any idea why the restore old youtube option won't set any cookies? I disabled all my addons and it still won't work.
>>62178402
Are you logged into a Google Account?
I don't care. I use an RSS reader and mpv+youtube-dl to watch and keep track of youtube subscriptions now, and if I want to look through youtube to watch random shit I just use hooktube. I never have to use their god awful website ever again nor worry about ads or tracking.
You could almost say I'm free as in freedom.
Unfortunately Stallman would never approve because I'm still using a proprietary service to watch videos from but I'd like to think he'd at least be proud.
>>62178440
Yeah. Doesn't work logged in or logged out though.
>>62178470
Try other browsers just to see if that's the issue.

This is what happens when you focus on diversity of your employees rather than their merit.
>>62167980
This is what the JP site looks like, which mine got stuck on because of a glitch. I imagine this will be the next design, and the downfall of YouTube. It's fucking cancer. There's no contrast and you can't tell what's a button because everything's flat.
>>62178625
web 2.0 was a mistake
>>62164727
desu it looks like the old one to
>>62164727
I'll like it when Youtube Plus gets updated to support it.
>>62164727
No, it broke my rice :C
>>62164727
No. It looks like complete shit. There was nothing wrong with the old design.
How the hell do you comment on videos now?
Thank the lord for the dark mode. I almost when blind at evenings
>>62180487
Went blind* damn autocorrect
>>62164727
I liked the 2010-2011 design more. Member when you could actually customize the appearance of your channel? Member when the small channels didn't all feel like they'd reached their peak? Member when YouTube was YOUTube, not ContentCreatorTube?

No, I always hated the mobile look for things on pc. reverted to the old design right away

the power of the new youtube redesign
i sure hope the people in charge of this change are being well payed

>be vapid cunt
>get into YT
>it just werks
>decide to change UI for no reason other than to appear less useless
>>62177819
just imagine how fast that would be on a modern browser
oh and for the record, every click and scroll action you make on the new design is being tracked and sent back to them (im not kidding, even mousehovers), they can basically completely replay your youtube browsing completely on their side if they so please. praise google
>>62164727
Your honor I rest my case.
>>62181713

Why are they making things bigger and more spaced out?
>>62183201
Because mobile
The layout was best when they used to have 5 star ratings.
I also liked it when they showed the popularity by video by country and also websites that hotlinked the video
why the fuck did they take those things away
>>62183350
>showed the popularity by video by country
Oh man that was the fucking best
I wonder if the reason YT got rid of those things was for the sole reason of having a cleaner interface
Just another reason to hate web devs and their shitty design trends
>>62181558
I don't see anything wrong with it.
>>62183350
>video popular among males age 5 to 13 and age 45 - 80
>>62181831
If you use Youtube Center add-on, disable it and it will work again.
Nope, switched back to the old layout as soon as I found the option.
Too much white space. Disliked the fonts, and the new red is really fucking bright and the new logo is too bold
>>62183493
>it's ok to include the kitchen sink
just fyi, they changed the xpath for that one since i posted it. nothing wrong with it either, testing buggy products for free is great!
I like that theater mode actually takes up more space with video now. It was next to useless before.
Someone please link that "restore YouTube layout" thing.
>>62164727
I like watching videos on my unregistered version of Excel 2010.
[spoiler]Kill it with fire kthxbye[/spoiler]
>>62177807
Honestly, there is no user experience on the side of the producers / creators. The fucking psycho CEO is trying to make YouTube a "Safe Zone". Which is destroying any of the good content out there.
>>62164727
yes, it looks good
i'm not surprised by the outrage though, I don't think there's ever been a single layout change of a popular website that was received positively. people will get used to it within a couple days and stop caring probably.
>>62171176
yes, much in the same way they ruin video games
