I really don't like it, there was nothing wrong with the old one 7 it was much easier to navigate.

Anyone dislike it? And is there a way to change it back?

Thumbs Up

It's crap. No idea how to change it back. I still prefer the original layout all those years ago.

It's shocking, and the adverts are f**king annoying. Most disappointed.

Maybe it's only on certain videos, but usually a 20 sec advert before the video actually starts. Usually the annoying dum dum dum dum dum I'm loving it. Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

Well they've removed the thing where you could watch videos with numbers and letters.

So yeah, I do think it's staying because they are stupid. Laughing

Actually, I'm liking the new layout, it seems less cluttered. Considering I go to YouTube to watch videos, I'm not looking at what's on the rest of the screen.

I just find it annoying that i can't find 'more videos from this user' or 'related videos'

[EDIT]

Obviously i missed that there all listed down the side like they used to be, but you used to be able to 'see all related videos' now you just get a dozen or so related vids.

Fucking adverts, even for just normal videos I seem to be getting them.

20 seconds of adverts to watch a 2min clip.

Kiss my arse

Maybe it's the type of videos I'm watching, but I'm yet to see a single advert... Confused

Must be, I think was watching clips from "real tv". I think anything created by a regular jo doesn't have any adverts.

I hate it. I haven't watched a video since it changed because I can't stand it.

I looked at the forums about people complaining and I filled this form in to complain about it. It looks like an old version of youtube like they have gone backwards instead of forwards.

if this happened then no one would be going anywhere.
why bring out LCD and plasma screens when CRT's did just fine?
why ride a sports 1000 when a 125 will also get you from A to B?
one of the the reasons why this country is one of a remaining few that still continue to stick with the imperial system even though a metric is much simpler?
just the fact the human's don't like change

i quite like the new youtube layout. much more space for the videos i want to watch. plus you can search for another video while still watching the current one.

I've not observed any forced advertising yet, but the interface has changed.

Not that it matters much, youtube has always had a shit interface and always lacked what I wanted it to do.

The "watch more videos from this user" thing is the worst, I just want a page where it lists them all clearly.

That's my biggest problem too, i was watching a video which was the third of four 4 clips & the others were nowhere to be seen so i had to search manually. With the old layout they would of been listed clearly on the right with the rest of the users videos & related videos.
