My beef with this new design is that it needlessly takes up more space. It's comical when the video is small; the scroll bar can be near the middle of the video sometimes. And on top of this it feels slower and less responsive.
I watched a letterboxed video earlier and it cropped the black bars and made my video a little narrow strip at the top left. I thought I was losing it then it started beachballing in an attempt to keep up with it's own micromanagement horseshit rather than, you know, playing a video.
They made an artistic decision on content they don't create, just host.
It's fucking goofy.
