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 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 is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
