youtube vid

nice vid :) subbed ;)

The new style is cleaner, which I can appreciate, but Google's new trend of leaving a ton of wasted space at larger resolutions is terrible.

I find it funny that if you read their web designer pages there is loads of stuff about being responsive/adaptive :laugh:

i like the new layout and the new options allot (guide menu, shuffle and repeat buttons and more), but since i have a 1280x768 resolutions i never saw a problem; i now see that for bigger resolutions there's a waste space problem. Still, that's no biggie.

Youtube changed? What is this?! Dammit, I am tired of change!

BACK IN MY DAY WE DIDN'T HAVE AVATARS NEXT TO OUR NAMES EVERYWHERE! WE DIDN'T NEED GUIDES ON WEBSITES TO FIND OUR WAY AROUND!

Nah, it's fine. I don't like the user pictures on comments, or the guide thing, but really, I just go there to watch videos, and leave so I don't really care. Most of the time spent is in fullscreen anyway or staring at the video, so I don't pay attention to the layout.

Awesome! That works great! Thank you so much!!!! :cat:

i know, that alone makes the new layout so much more bearable :)

now i just need to find a way to get the light grey background of the old layout back to lessen the eyestrain of the pure white and it'll be perfect

I'm stalking you on Youtube right now...

Is that your voice? (in the video "Traffic va ggf" where you(?) say "I'm recording")

Subscribed to your channel :p

I don't browse with a maximised window, so it doesn't really bother me. I have a 2560-pixel-wide screen. I can fit 2 whole Safari windows on the screen. Consequently, I really don't browse with maximised window. Things would look horrible.

Decided to go ahead and install greasemonkey to use that script.

I found another useful script as well..

https://userscripts....pts/show/153735

That one makes it so when you click on the youtube logo you go directly to:

Useful. Getting closer to the usability of older versions of youtube now.

I use both Stylish and Greasemonkey. And with both i can get some good results on YouTube.

For Greasemonkey, i use this extension: http://greasefire.userscripts.org/scripts/show/120134

And to get more darker colors on YouTube so they aren't to sharp to my eyes, then i use this Stylish extension: http://userstyles.org/styles/62289/black-youtube-by-panos

And lastly, i use this Stylish extension to fix up some things with the new YouTube design: http://userstyles.org/styles/57297/youtube-design-fixes

If you use this, then the YouTube site and viewing will be much much better.

Let me know how it is for those who tries this :D

used this userscript to make the layout centered http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/153606

and only the background portion of this userstyle to bring back the light grey background pattern of the old layout http://userstyles.org/styles/79580/youtube-get-the-old-design-back-dec-7

I've always used magic actions, i disable almost everything except for auto wide and auto hd.

It now has been updated with a centre option :)

give it a go.

(I use adblock to remove the bar under the video that magic actions inserts)

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      By sphbecker · Posted

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
