i dont get why everyones hating on it so bad.. sure its different but get used to it, changes happen. Sure its new and different and no ones used to it yet.. but thats just right now. just give it a month and youll adapt to it and im sure before you know it youll wonder how you managed with what they had earlier. if noone ever updated anything, we'd be stuck in some retro style era, which could be kinda cool but not as easily accesible

There's good change and there's bad change. I wouldn't mind changing the style of YouTube but this new layour is just garbage imo. It makes it slower, harder to navigate around videos, like someone said above the new rating system sucks, etc.

Guys, you should try this! I tested that and it works. Now I can see the star rating before voting like in an old youtube and I'm not wasting my time on watching poor videos, because I know which movie isn't good enough. Just like before April 2010.

I can confirm this works, too. Thank you very much! Works very well and is self-explanatory. icon14.gif

This is 1000 times worse than the Facebook changes. Atleast the layout actually quickly grew on me and now I like it. As for this... I can already tell that this new layout will never grow on me.

 

f*ck youtube, f*ck google, f*ck the people who made youtube look ugly

The new rating system is better... since people went 1 starring videos randomly when youtube had the old one.

And now they can thumb them down randomly with the new layout!

 

The new YouTube is so advanced.

Looks like it has been updated again. I can't even find where I can fast forward in a video anymore.

Youtube in general is ruined by every video starting out as if the person owns a production company. I don't wanna watch 5 minutes of prologue.

Are sh*tty new UIs a growing trend or something? Steam has now completely gayed everything up with its now "web 2.0" layout.

Oh noez, change, how will my feeble mind ever work itself around such a thing. It's a quandry, no. It's, dare I say? f*cking progression. How the f*ck is anything supposed to develop properly if everything remains static? Steam's old layout was bland and sh*tty and same thing with the old Youtube layout. One would figure that after watching thousands upon thousands of videos the old layout would at least get a little stale?

 

But of course that's what people do right? Bitch when something is done to make their use of something easier, quicker and more efficient. They pick out every little worthless detail and peck at it until it's raw and bleeding without taking the actual time to look at the numerous positives because they're so caught up in their idiotic prejudices that they can't look past the tip of their f*cking nose and realize they're being closed minded dipsh*ts. [/rant]

 

I love the new layout, plus the fact that it's making so many idiots rage just makes it even sweeter.

I see the new video player skin only on couple of videos. But I can't see anything that wrong with the new youtube layout. I actually love it. 1-5 ratings are replaced with 'Like' and 'Dislike' It's the right thing to do because people used to rate 1 or 5 anyways. The comment system, for me is much simpler. I don't see reason to whine, you'll get used to it. But yeah, the new video player is pretty weird, I don't like the moving bar. But overall I don't give a f*ck really, it's just a website.

the new youtube skin is just plain white and boring, the old one was much more easyer to use and looked much better.

The stars rating was perfectly fine, it doesn't matter that people only voted 5 or 1, it was the average result that was important. So now with the new ratio system, first off I cant see it without voting in it, and the only f*cking point of the system at all is to save you from watching a sh*tty video/rickroll/whatever, so its utterly pointless now, as most people will just give it a donkey vote to see what the result actually is.

I agree. I don't mind the thumbs ratings really because I don't rate videos too much, but I want to be able to see the damn rating before I watch the video.

I'm not really whining about it, or having a rage, just stating my point of view. Change is good, yeah, but not some of their recent changes. I miss the 5 star system, and the page layout is too messy now... and really, the recent change to the video player is just.... terrible. The video progress bar takes up even more of the screen.

 

By the way, I can't remember the name, but there is something you can download on Firefox that inserts a little 5 stars rating above the "thumbs up, thumbs down" options, so you can see the rating (in original form) before voting.

Well...

 

The problem with the old skin was that it became too f*cking cluttered with useless sh*t. Now theyve just tried to improve it and make it prettier and perhaps more coherent. Personally, I dont like the look of it as much as the old one but yeah... whatever, its not like it makes the experience worse (any more than it already is).

 

What DOES piss me off is the f*cking region bullsh*t ... plus the deletion of audio tracks and videos that some companies dont like etc.

I dont see why we need to have the adds right on top of the videos when half the damn page is empty whatsthat.gif

 

I've also been having troubles when I want to go back to a certain part of a video I've already loaded, often youtube will have me reload the entire video. Gets frustrating when your connection's not so fast

 

 

Edit:

 

"This video contains content from WMG, who has decided to block it in your country."

 

^ This, is starting to get pretty old too

Beginning to suck?

 

It's sucked since 2006. I can't read the comments without being ashamed of being a human.

The ammount of retarded and idiotic reactions made by probably retarded/idiotic people...

I have that problem a lot... but with my right speaker. But it is probably because my speakers are sh*t and only halfway work. Before they started messing up though, I did get the left speaker only glitch, but only on really old videos (like 2005- early 2007). I can't say it has happened recently.

Well, I have no reaction with the new YouTube. It still shows videos, allows you to comment and rate. For me, it has improved. What YouTube had failed to do is get rid of all those retards posting silly and annoying comments in each and every video I watch.

For me personally, it's gotten concretely worse. Like, not design wise but the way it actually runs. It's gotten laggy as sh*t. Granted, this ancient relic for a computer of mine plays a large part in the issue but if a site goes from working fine to being slow and freezing, it's safe to say something, somewhere has gone wrong.

I like that ancient relic of a computer part...biggrin.gif

 

Well, I have a 7 year old laptop with incomplete set of keys and tons of viruses but still works fine with YT?
