    Oh god…I still don’t understand how coke came out of that fiasco ahead of pepsi. Hell, I thought R.C. Cola would lap them.

  The old and the new UI still auto hides controls and the seekbar and timestamp. I hate that it hides those! Besides remember when the seekbar showed where the Ads were in marking those sections in yellow? Good times.

      Add Sponsorblock (included in Revanced) to skip in-video sponsor segments as well as self-marketing, recaps, etc if you want.

  I don’t think it’s too bad. I can imagine those with some slight visual impairments it might’ve been awkward to see the buttons some times without a background for them

  I don’t think it looks terrible, but it does look like windows media player from 20 years ago.
