Tried a couple of music videos and several of them didn’t so not sure how that’s supposed to work.
LibreTube has a clean and modern UI. As does Piped. PokeTube is all over the place and frankly looks as if it was designed by a 12 year old gamer. Same with the user settings and preferences, all spread out with no cohesion.
Right, I should update this, as Ashley hasn’t actually gotten around to making this work. Although I’ve noticed the code is there, I guess that stuff never got done.
Yeah sorry about the UWU text and all, but I don’t think Ashley will go away from this.
That’s fine, it’s her project, she’s allowed to design it the way she likes. However I dare say that it will turn off a lot of people.
More importantly though is the usability aspect. Fun and creative design is all good and well, but the messy layout, design and language is a real detriment to the ease of use. Good UI design should aim to be as clear and simple to use as possible, so that the product can get on with doing what it’s designed to do.
Well in that case, I might come back with my PokeTube fork which will have a revamped user interface and cleaner code, and the choice of text will be more standard.
Currently, that fork is in early development, so won’t be for a while, but a lot of progress has been made to clean up her awful messy code.
Posts aren’t locked unless the tool gets added to the site, in case something changes in the future. But I’m going to mark this suggestion as rejected for all the reasons @frostlike shared (mainly because we currently recommend 6 different YouTube frontends, all of which are cleaner and more well known)
