ugh, this is so much worse. takes up more space, is more distracting.

I want to be able to skip around in videos and not have the screen covered by ugly pill buttons

At least it’s not covered by a dark shade now. 👍 I’m initially for this change. Good to see an iteration. Let’s see how it goes.

Why does that matter? It looked fine.

It was literally my favorite design of online video player, and I remember enabling it back in the day when it was still an experimental feature.

I don’t like that parts of the video are covered unnecessarily by shit.

For example, those damn end-video cards that cover the video before it’s even finished, and your can’t disable them and you can’t dismiss them, so whatever was at the end of the video is just unavailable except for the sound.

Yeah. It also looks like the buttons might light up on hover, but they already basically do that so that’s only a very small plus. I too remember being annoyed about not seeing content behind the shade properly.
