Seems fine.
As long as I can still use the J/K/L keys to play/pause and scrub, I see no issues here. People bitching just to bitch.
That said, I do not enjoy the new "everything is bigger" view on YouTube's home page that was clearly designed for mobile. But that can be fixed easily, so it's a non-issue.
What’s wrong with it?
Looks like UI from like 2005 lol.
No it doesn't, not enough gradients
