Honestly, no, it took me a while - still does to realize ethat its there, and I do - and will always prefer to have the text over the video, I always find it weird to have it under.

well, not just that - it's also stupidly designed - I prefered the old look - all my SUBSCRIBE stuff - on the front page, in other words, the only stuff I care about - on the front page, now i have to navigate to my prenumerations - show only stuff from prenumerarions


it's stupid and takes longer for me to find what I want. Not to mention the webbsite itself looks very unproffessional and almost too empty.

Just changed for me too. Damn it sucks. I liked my subscriptions being on the home page, now I have to navigate to them.

I just changed my Youtube "home page" to http://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions, so it's the same as the previous version.

My Subscriptions is still on the homepage, it's under What To Watch. And in fact it now lists ALL your subscriptions on the homepage not just a handful. I think you're prejudging it.

Shh... you're pretty.

Go into your subscriptions manager, you can disable those from all your subs by checking the "only show uploads" box next to their name. A bit of a pain at first, but it's done after that and you'll only see uploads.

This is irritating beyond belief, the videos that show up in my feed are all random ages -

1 day ago
4 weeks ago
20 minutes ago
1 year ago
3 days ago

etc.....

I can't find the damn sort list button, anywhere! Where has it gone and where does the web designer live so I can punch him for this mess?

That is true, but then subscriptions are newest first.

I've also found out that some videos (I think the ones in html5 format) glitch out when you switch to fullscreen. How can they totally break things and not seem to realise/care?

Shh... you're pretty.

Confirmed, html5 fullscreen doesn't work. (Elements behind it overlap) You can test yourself by adding &html5=True to the url.

Why did they remove the ability to see if you have new messages from the front page? You have to now go into your inbox to check.

Why oh why does YouTube keep trying to force me to use my real name? Maybe I don't want to disclose personal details to random people.

I miss the old channel layouts where you had a list of all of the videos on the channel on the right side while being able to watch a video on the left.

I also miss the star rating system.

They've really dumbed down everything.
