How do I activate the new YouTube design?

Unread post by urielvalerie » 2025-03-24, 10:41

Hello there,
Is there a way to enable the new YouTube interface with the updated YouTube Creative Studio? I attempted to change the user agent, but it did not work. Thank you.

There isn't. Use a ChromeZIlla browser if you want that. Google does their level best to ensure their services will only run well with their own browser engine.

There is certain satisfaction that comes with using unsanctioned browsers with Google's stuff.

There is, until they stop working. The only Google services I use are Gmail, Maps and Youtube. GMail via IMAP, Maps & Youtube on Android (probably can add that also to the list), so PM's compatibility hasn't been relevant for years. I used to occasionally use GMail's web interface but stopped a couple of years ago when it would cause massive memory leaks.

For the record, Google Maps works fine in Pale Moon (at least I use it semi-regularly and don't see any major issues)

Yeah, I don't use their services through their web interfaces frequently. They generally lean towards cumbersome side.

I guess you don't subscribe to the philosophy if it looks too new, its probably crap.

Another words, bright and shiny is a turd.

I hope so someone helps you find a way to do so although I cannot really can't say I understand why though.
