Youtube is forcing people to use ugly mode now

Had to reset my cookies and now I'm stuck with their gross bubbly look. Argh can't they at least make the view count area suck less?

Youtube changed their look a few years ago, but there was so much backlash that they brought back the old design as an option.

Now they're removing that option.

Didn't know about that option lol. Do you have comparisons?

This should show you the old look just for that tab.

I'm so used to the new look that this looked ugly to me.

Conclusion: change is ugly, not any of the designs.

I like the old one a bit better, but not enough to care.
