YouTube gets new UI and new logo
https://www.theverge.com/2017/8/29/16216868/new-youtube-logo-redesign-font-color-app-design
You may have noticed this morning that a new logo (for the first time ever) appeared for YouTube, in addition to a redesigned look to the site. I've seen the new UI appear every now and then for what seems like eternity, but it now looks like YouTube itself is starting to phase out the current design we know and love. What do you guys think of these changes? |
I'm already getting used to the new logo because it didn't change quite too much except for having the TV thingy with the play button in it just like that small icon in the tab. However, the new YouTube UI might be a bit too red for me though.
|
I discovered that new logo when I was watching some Let's Plays, but I don't like how much brighter the new red is. It feels blinding to my eyes if you ask me.

I actually didn't notice the change until I got the news from Discord haha. I don't really mind the change as I barely notice, but I will miss the old logo. :[ It's been around for so long.
|
The red has to be brighter. It's blinding. Check the hex codes.
|
According to some sources where I discovered that YouTube changed their logo, it seems that they're aiming for pure red (#FF0000) as part of design, sooo...

it will take some time to get used to. especially the blinding red. but other than that it's ok i guess.
|
Seems like the "new ui" is basically the old ui but they removed the borders on everything and now it looks really sloppy.
|
Google is stupid, very very stupid.
|
The new UI is terrible, I disabled it immediately. Less usable, hard on the eyes, and generally just not good. The logo I hated initially, but now? I still hate it.

> the red needs to go
> atleast the new ui isnt the weird sleek one that keeps on popping up before because i s2g hate that one, looks too spacious and really clunky |
Is it me or the subscribe button bigger now than when it used to be next to the channel name? Now you can't miss it when a video tells you to SUBSCRIBE 4 MORE.
I miss the black background on playlists, the grey is a bit odd. |

Add onto that the amount of YouTubers who will still ask everyone to subscribe to them in their videos, too. |
I noticed the change yesterday, though I'm unsure this is only on Chrome because I'm pretty sure Microsoft Edge is still using the previous design.
|
I use Chrome and now I start noticing the new designs coming into effect. It just looks so badly enlarged compared to the previous layouts.
I mean, what is it with social media platforms I use getting all crappy? First Tumblr and now this. |
I absolutely hate it.
|
Not a huge fan of the new shade of red. I'm not really a fan of Material Design overall but I don't really mind the way they integrated that into YouTube.
I wonder if the new design comes with new policies? Lately, videos of many content creators are being demonetized because they, supposedly, are not suitable for all advertisers, which sucks for some people who actually make a living out of YouTube. |

New logo : as boring as the previous logo
New UI : the change is barely noticeable, and there's still the annoying auto-play button Overall : 7,8 / 10 there's still too much white{XD} |

In the meanwhile, the new UI really isn't that much of a change for me. Except the red is ridiculously bright, and I have eye saver mode and f.lux to dim my monitor when I'm watching videos. The red still hurts my eyes when I first go to Youtube. |
I don't mind the new logo, but the new UI is confusing, I thought they would implement some kind of simplistic UI, but not this simple, it looks a lot messier without borders.
