The new YouTube design and the new 'dark mode' are now available, thanks to Material Design

YouTube has been redesigned, which has seen how Material Design has come to YouTube and what is most appreciated and most talked about, is the 'dark mode', which puts YouTube in a dark gray design that allows the view to be tire less.

For a year we have been back with the new version of YouTube, some day for unknown reasons, it has been possible to see a small advance in a soft drink or once we have entered, but the new design based on Material Design is here. In the first instance it was raised as an idea that they did not know if it would finally be applied, but that allowed the web to enter into Google's design, adopted some time ago.

The experiences obtained were so good that Google has already officially presented the new YouTube design and that it falls within the Material Design line, which focuses its focus on videos and some other news. The Chief Experience of Users of YouTube, Fred Gilbert has commented the following: 'We want the content to be the star. Everything else shouldn't be that important. '

If you are impatient, you can now activate this design quickly and easily through THIS LINK. There you will see a description about the news in the design of the web, so that you know a little what you are going to find. By clicking on the 'Go to YouTube' button, we will go to the new YouTube design, which is based on Material Design and which is quite interesting and that we liked a lot.

One of the options that users have asked the most is the implementation of a mode that changes the design from white to dark gray, which has been called 'dark mode' and is available to everyone. This will allow our eyes to rest and those who do not want to activate the full screen will also appreciate it. In addition to this gray layout, the playlist disappears, the link text goes from blue to black, and the video preview is larger. The navigation bar on the left is smaller, less annoying. The YouTube logo has also been reduced and the subscribe button has also received improvements in this regard.

In addition, we have also seen a tweak in the comments, which are more comfortable to read. Before they were not perfectly integrated with the design, so with this redesign they can be read better and are more comfortable to read. The channels have also been retouched. The recommendation bar has disappeared or has been hidden, which allows the video list bar to occupy the entire width of the page. The header has been enlarged, as well as a slightly larger channel icon and a redesigned and enlarged subscribe button. If someone does not see this new design very well, does not like it, or wants to return to the previous YouTube mode, there is a button in the user's profile that allows us to return to the previous design.
