    Every time I read “YouTube redesign” I hope for a proper Material You design (including adaptive colors). Instead it’s always just some menus shifting around.

      It makes me really mad cause YouTube is clearly taking ideas from Material Design 3, and even M3 recommends customizing it, but the way YouTube has done it is to make components smaller and harder to use in comparison to canonical M3. Like the bottom bar which is way thinner than the M3 one in comparison.

      It makes YouTube look like it’s using a M3 knockoff

      YouTube has gone far from Material Design long time ago. The thin ugly icons are just one from many of the examples.

    Today I learned there’s a library tab. I clicked in on it and am sure I’ve never seen that before.

      Have you never looked at your history or playlists? Or maybe there’s another way to access those.

        Yes, I use both pretty heavily. But they’re right there in the same menu, what’s under Library just seems like a less useful version of what I want.

          I thought you meant the app, but yeah, that’s true for the desktop version.

    I’ve never even looked at the “library” tab in my life and wasn’t even aware it existed until reading this post.

      It’s basically just for your playlists, favorites, and watch history. “Library” never made much sense for that tab anyway.

      honestly, I think YouTube music is kind of been on a roll lately with changes. I know some people were against the comment section being at it for songs, but I love it

        When it provides all the same functionality and navigablility as Play Music, it will be on a roll.

        As long as it keeps trying to game all of Spotify’s terrible choices, it will always be subpar.

          Can you elaborate on what functionality is missing? I hear this all the time and I haven’t been able to get an actual answer as to what is missing

          That is strange, I’ve had the opposite experience. YouTube’s mixes are great and interesting, and being able to pick from “familiar” and “discover” in your queue to instantly pick out different music rocks. Also the discover mix can be nice

              Yeah I dunno, I’ve always had good luck but I certainly believe you aren’t. Maybe something to do with how it has built your model

                  Second the desktop app. I’ve accepted it won’t happen at this point. PWAs are pretty close these days anyways

        I agree. I have been. Enjoying the live lyrics update and I glance in the comments every now and then too.
