I noticed immediately because I thought I had a giant smudge on my glasses. Super distracting and I always disable it.
Comment on YouTube is doubling down on its distracting ambient mode

I don’t understand the hate for ambient mode. I’ve barely noticed it exists.

Personally, I dislike it because it makes myolder devices lag noticeably, so I just keep it off out of habit.

Same, and when I have noticed it, I think it looks pretty nice at times. This is one of those cases of people just complaining for the sake of it.
If people want to complain about actual dumb UI changes; aim it at the new Discord mobile UI.

I disabled it after noticing it exists (it made some text harder to read)

I added it myself with a plugin for using Youtube on my 21:9 monitor

Some people do, some people don’t. I do, and find it distracting because it’s not subtle enough.

My main issue is that it’s a buggy mess. The bars will be different shades and get stuck. I have to close the app to fix it (or at least had to now that I know I can disable it)
Also, not really a big thing, but I bet it uses a little more battery than it otherwise would
