What do you guys think about the new "One Channel" channel pages? IMO, they SUCK. But the thing that I really, really, really don't like is that they are turning everything WHITE. They are extracting every single color they can from it :/ I liked it much better when at least it had some black and gray on there.

I hate to say it, but I actually like the trend of getting people to use real names. It makes people act less like idiots. Which, as anyone who's read Youtube comments will know, is something that community could use.
I would never ask people to use real names here, as that isn't the culture we've established and it would be strange to change it now. That's the issue with Youtube as well, but... I mean, really, Youtube commentors are so STUPID... I feel like anything they can do to improve that is probably a good idea.
They aren't FORCING you to use your real name on Youtube. I'm still Wowfunhappy. They just WANT you to, and with fairly good reason.

OK, if no one else is gonna say it, I will.
There is no debating the fact that YouTube has completely and thoroughly slaughtered the great website it used to be. It used to be so user-friendly, so efficient. The moderation downright sucked and still does now, there's no circumnavigating that, but it was a great place where you could watch videos and share your own with the whole world. It's none of that anymore. It's completely inefficient, slaughtered every last bit of user-friendliness there was to be seen in it, and to top it off, has basically been hijacked by Google. Don't even get me STARTED on the godawful new color schemes and layouts...
Anyway, I honestly think YouTube needs to improve or die. The downfall of YouTube is a far cry from a minority opinion, and I see no reason for it to continue to exist if it's just going to get worse and worse by the day.

Unfortunately, people are to stupid or ignorant to care, therefore youtube will still be the same for many years to come.ElectroYoshi wrote:OK, if no one else is gonna say it, I will.

Yeah, I honestly can't help but notice the inefficient layout of the main page, which is why a large majority simply bookmarked their "Subscription Tab" instead to save out one step in looking for new content. I do actually like the new channel page over the original - for the simple reason that I honestly don't mind if peoples channels look the same, as I mainly focus on their content. When it came down to it - most people used the background to beg for subscribers with "New content!" "Subscribe! Get a cookie" now of course they still sort of do that. It actually might be beneficial to hide the number of subscribers from both the creator and viewers as it is often more about the number active viewers than it is the number of passive subscribers - it would also heavily knock-down the bragging rights, which is always a good thing.
I can understand the wish to customize a channel from a content creator, but 9 times out of 10 it seems to distract the viewer more than encourage them to watch more content.

I wouldn't say YouTube sucks, it's still a platform for people to upload and view videos from all over the world. What bothers me is that I couldn't visit my channel or use any of my playlists until I made a Google+ account. Also I don't think that Google+ will reduce the amount of idiots or trolls as you're not forced to use your real name. I don't get why using his real name would make an idiot less stupid anyways, after all they think they're right. Another thing that really bothered me is that the website isn't aligned to the center of the screen anymore. (I already downloaded a script for that, but it's still bad design)
