Comment on YouTube is doubling down on its distracting ambient mode

  You and the other two agreeing with you here I think. Personally I think it’s 100% a waste of resources. That shitty feature spikes the temps on my old laptop and the fans go nuts. If it was off by default I’d appreciate that feature (however there are SO many things I’d like YouTube to fix before adding nonsensical features like that).

  For me, I can’t get over the obvious banding and gradient artifacts, and it’s just too distracting.

    Precisely. I turn it off. Too distracting.

  Same, but it would be better if it made it completely black when the light would be gray. So only show it if there’s color or the video becomes really bright.

  I really like it. It’s cozy.

  I have no strong opinions on it. I like it better on than off
