Same. The gradient is ugly and unnecessary IMO. Looks like discoloration, especially in the progress bar. But hey, if the promo committee likes it, what's a couple billion users between friends?
Haha, that reminded me of https://thehaplesshap.com/docs/case_8/

This is probably the type of ad you ran into: https://www.404media.co/deepfake-youtube-ads-of-celebrities-...
omg yes this
> The video takes viewers on a bizarre journey from a strip club in Texas to a fake Harvard urologist’s office to an abandoned church in Thailand where scientists discovered a species of bat with abnormally large and long-lasting erections. Along the way, deepfake videos of everyone from Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington, and adult entertainment star Johnny Sins are made to say they have been quietly using this secret formula to last longer in bed. The video eventually concludes by offering viewers the opportunity to buy six bottles or 180 days-worth of Prolong Power at $49 per bottle.
I literally can’t read this blog post because it keeps jumping to the top of the page to play the video again and again. Maybe take 10% of the time you spent dreaming up new colors to just make your blog function like a regular page instead of adding a million weird animations?

Is it a reasonable argument to say you can pay $20/month or whatever it is in your country and avoid ad's altogether?
Just wait until they introduce a “brief ad” into paid premium subscriptions too.
On the one hand, this seems like a completely nonsensical, pointless change for the sake of change that has no tangible effect on UX. On the other, something about the particular gradient used makes me deeply uncomfortable. Just obvious enough to catch your eye, but indistinct enough to make you feel like something's wrong with your eyes. A change that accomplishes nothing and a change that degrades the experience ar…
Same; I personally find that bit of magenta very aggravating. If I had to try and articulate a logical explanation, it might be that if a cheap red pigment were printed in "analog" then it might easily "fade" to something pinkish. I know very little about "design" but I feel like red and magenta don't at all look pleasing together, and when they occur together my mind interprets some defect in the display mechanism and that subtly triggers anxiety and adds tension in my jaw. It's like I instinctively want to "rub the defect" off my screen, and it's aggravating that I cannot.
Oh. So this is what working at a big company would be like.

An ad interrupted my video today, it was Tom Hanks in a podcast talking about his prostate. The ad was (not so obviously) AI generated; both an AI clone of his voice and an AI-generated face-swap/ lip replacement. This seemed pretty surprising because it was fairly convincing. He looks like he is saying the dialog of the ad. It's surprising because there's no way the creator of the ad got Hanks' approval to use his l…
At this point, if someone is not using UBlock and Revanced, it is 100% their fault. Megacorps has very clearly told us that they want ever profits even if it destroys lives, our planet and our future.
