/\-MORE FROM on the left of the video.

The only thing I can't figure out is where to find the daily list of popular videos you would get by hitting browse on the homepage. Is that gone or am I missing something?

edit:found it. you have to click browse on the bottom left tab, then popular on youtube, then click the "popular on youtube" header that pops up, and then click videos. What a pain. Also viewing the list doesn't show you how old the videos are for some reason.

They also seemed to remove sorting by upload date when you search for something.

Nope, most videos don't have this button at all for me, just the guide. And whether or not I'm subscribed to them makes no difference. What in the hell, youtube? :mad:

It's not obvious, but that menu on the left is context-sensitive. If you come from a person's video list, it will show more from that person. If you come from your subscriptions, it will show more from your subscriptions. Same for Watch history, "what to watch", etc. Basically any list that isn't an explicit playlist.

Yeah, this is really lovely. Even if it shows it when you come from their channel, that's still really stupid. How am I supposed to stumble upon a video and then quickly see if the user has anything else worthwhile without interrupting the video?

I also hate the lack of sort options on searches (you can still manually add them to the URL, but man is that inconvenient).

I've been able to work with most of the new design change. The one thing that is really, really bugging me though is how it's hosed up my main YT page. For one simple reason:

"Recommended for you because you watched"

gently caress Off! Argh. Youtube is recommending me videos and clogging the page up, by recommending me videos based on my viewing history. What it isn't doing is picking up that I've already watched every single loving video it recommends.

Anyone know how to disable that 'feature' without having to clear out my viewing history?

Also, This is probably more of a Chrome thing, but since the changes, if you're looking for videos from other countries and the title is in another language, the 'TRANSLATE' option button sits conveniently over the title so you can't read it. What the gently caress is that about?

The worst part is that the layout doesn't even display properly if you decide to cascade the window to be half of your 1920x1080 screen. It going to the left instead of center is insufferable if you have your browser in full screen, so I figured I'd just slam windows key+right arrow and call it a day. Nope. Horizontal scrollbar, left area condensed to something incomprehensible, and important information cut off to the side at a standard width.

I also don't get why the player doesn't line up with anything. It's awkwardly higher than the similar videos on the right, the ads below the player touch it and make the maligned video information impossible to scan, and generally the page is an unreadable mess here on my end. Each individual part looks good enough, although I question the whitespace to the left and right of the video title, information, and comments. Displaying giant avatars in comments while disabling proper pagination is equally ridiculous given just how many comments most videos get over the years.

On the day of the Seinfeld finale, Newsday had a scathing article about how racist Seinfeld was because there were no black actors. Even though there's tons of episodes with black actors in Seinfeld.

I think the complaint was more that none of the regular characters were black. Sure there was Jackie Chiles, the woman who made Elaine clean the basement, Mr. Morgan from Yankee Stadium - but none of them were there for more than a handful of episodes.

Larry David definitely corrected that in Curb Your Enthusiasm, though, whether or not it was because of the criticism.

Is it kosher to share something I keep updating as Youtube changes UIs?

720p Youtube

First time putting it on userstyles though; I used to just share it with friends.



I'm thinking of making a version that drops the guide sidebar down below the video and makes the comment window narrow again in between guide and related videos, if there's any interest.

updated the style this morning; tweaked things so you can still use the guide if you want

if browser is wide enough, will simply show the guide next to the video as normal; if not, drops it down next to the comments and shows only the icon unless you expand it, in which case it shoves the comments over
