YouTube says goodbye to decade-old video player UI, but users hate the new design
(www.androidauthority.com)
Oh god.....I still don't understand how coke came out of that fiasco ahead of pepsi. Hell, I thought R.C. Cola would lap them.
It looks like the status bars window manager users tend to customize
the new design looks like it came from ten years ago
Looks like they just adopted material you design. It's a 'whatever' change for me.
The old and the new UI still auto hides controls and the seekbar and timestamp. I hate that it hides those! Besides remember when the seekbar showed where the Ads were in marking those sections in yellow? Good times.
Youtube: ......
Everyone else: .......
Youtube: LETS FUCK SHIT UP!!!
This ain't a problem with PipePipe
Judging from screenshots in this article, it doesn't seem to loose or gain any functionality: all of the same controls are present.
With this in mind.
Who cares!? It's neither good nor bad. It's like the thing with playback line color. Yes, it's different, no, I didn't notice until some pointed it out, no, I couldn't care less.
I don't use the youtube app but I've hated every new redesign. Bring back the old ui
It's like the same but with a background color that has rounded corners.
I don't think it's too bad. I can imagine those with some slight visual impairments it might've been awkward to see the buttons some times without a background for them
I don't think it looks terrible, but it does look like windows media player from 20 years ago.
Oh so is that why I sometimes have to wait for a minute now before I can play a video?
