Welcome to Winter! The Daily Chit-Chat

[Taemin]

Am I the only one who had Youtube loading issues after its most recent update? Just leaving that out here.

No. I hate it's update. It looks so awkward, and just... meh.

I'm not used to it.

 

[Truality]

What problem are you experiencing?

Just massive lag. Only on YouTube. And only after said update.

 

[A Pixy]

Oh yeah, YouTube had a massive update.

Considering I go to the front page...

Never. I do like it considering it makes the background grey so there isn't any EYEBLEEDING WHITE in the background.

 

[Azzurra]

I can't even watch Youtube anymore. Thanks, prepaid internet.

 

[A Pixy]

You could put it 240p and limit yourself. Watch only people you really like. That's what I did when I was in your predicament.

 

[Ivysaur]

I'm not having any issues with Youtube, Just will have to get used to the new design and the *really annoying* new subscription list setup that makes really hard to see over 5 recently uploaded videos at a simple glance >_>

 

[Ho-Oh]

UGH THE FRONT PAGE LOOKS TERRIBLE. I only just started to appreciate the old first page. Oh well, I don't visit Youtube too much but ohay now it looks like every other social networking site :(

 

[vaporeon7]

I only ever really focus on the search bar, as long as no updates do anything to ruin that, I don't really care.

 

[Alakazam17]

The new YouTube will definitely take some time getting used to, but I suppose they know it won't reduce traffic. Heh

 

[donavannj]

I actually quite like the new YouTube color scheme, and I don't mind the layout, either. The color scheme actually sort of sent me on a bit of a nostalgia trip to what my first forum looked like back in 2004, because that forum had a light gray appearance, too, as did a lot of sites I frequented back then.

 

[mondays suck]

Same here. The first thing I did after the update was writing a complaint. From the start I knew that most likely nobody is ever going to read it, but still.

Edit: Turns out I was looking at page 155 while a page 156 had been existing for 8 hours. Must have misclicked when opening the thread. But the topic is still the same, so it isn't so bad, right?

 

[22sa]

There's the option to revert your own channel back to the old style which I did, not for browsing experience though, sadly.

Well looks aside, the new layout is much more processor demanding, and not very fun so far. I expect it to be satisfying down the road after they work on it more.

Yea and just when you get used to it BAM they'll change it again. They should just stop trying to fix what isn't broke.

 

[Livewire]

I'm not having ay technical issues with Youtube. :o

I kinda like the more professional sort of look.

 

[alisaie]

I'm not picky. It looked weird and I was all 'WHAT HAPPENED' at first, but I got over it. I'm not going to be one that's going to linger on the changes, since they're probably never going to just stick to something forever.

 

[Alakazam17]

I'm with BinaryPeaches here. I won't actively hate the changes, because I have become used to sites like YouTube messing with things regardless of what the users think. They're quite authoritarian in that regard, heh.

I raged when Google bought it out, I raged when Vevo was introduced, and I raged some more when ads started to appear. However, with the latest change before this, where they ended up forcing us to link our YouTube, Gmail, and Google+ accounts, I saw it as more of an annoyance than something to complain about. As long as I can find my videos in one way or another, I will endure Google's attempts to flaunt its authority over the internet. xD

 

[Meganium]

I actually have no problems with the new youtube look. The interface reminds me of a application from a smartphone. It's really pretty. xD I'd rather keep it than switch back.

 

[Shiny Celebi]

I actually kinda like the new YouTube layout. I dont usually care too much about what it looks like though.

 

[Sweet Candace]

I have no problems with the new YouTube layout, since I just go there to watch episodes, music videos and whatnot, and I probably would never sign up.

I feel bookmarking stuff from YouTube serves me better, IMHO.

 

[Truality]

It's funny how they're actually updating needless stuff and not fixing the really annoying ones, like the quality reverting and the video loading all over again when you change to fullscreen.
