YouTube abandoned the subscription grid view. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

[Suggestion] Channel Column Improvements #76

Open calebsander opened 10 years ago

A couple things:

  1. The channel bar has an awkward-looking column towards the bottom (two rows away from the last row of videos, I have found). Could be fixed by just making the channel bar extend the entire length of the video field.
  2. Much of the channel column is empty (apparent when scrolling downwards). I would suggest making the channel bar scroll separately.
  3. The channel bar retracts very jerkily and not all at once. It seems that the channels list disappears first, then the "Channels" heading over about 2 seconds.
  4. When the channels list is visible, mousing over videos causes the video to the right's label and the video below's to flicker to the right before returning to the center. The video that is being moused over (and the one below) also lose their border-radius for a moment before it returns.

Thanks for the suggestions! And yeah, the channel bar needs to be reworked. Channel handling in general.

I think I've had an idea now on how to do the channel design. Basically it would be a thing that sits permanently on the left side, just that it's zero pixel wide. What currently looks like a tab that is pulled up from the footer would thus become a tab that is pulled from the side of the screen. That way, I would also get rid of the current double construct where the button (the 'Channel' tab) is detached and has to be hidden away when the sidebar is shown.
