YouTube New Progress Bar #2622
Comments
This change is awful. It is also very inaccessible friendly for color blind individuals. This is a terrible idea for UI design. We have like 3 indicators on a video to tell us when it is close to ending, why did they feel we need this? Also, it is bugged and I can't change it to any other color. |
Ya it's brutal. Youtube staff at it again ruining the platform. Shoving "improvements" down our throats. To the point we need multiple browser extensions, running dozens of changes, to make it palatable again. |
have the same issue. Hope for a quick fix |
This should be considered a bug report. |
It only stopped working because of YouTube's latest update. You could call it a bug, but I would call it requesting an update. |
Can't stand the magenta/pink gradient thing as well. Hope this gets picked up / investigated, please and thank you!! Is this a duplicate of #2567 ? |
Yes this request seems to be a duplicate. I didn't check before creating it. |
I always appreciate it when the masters of software development over at Google et. al. work on the most important things, like changing the color of the progress bar. Everyone knows that rudimentary features, like a working search engine, or marking videos as "watched", are not important! Sarcasm aside, hopefully #2567 fixes it. |
Not sure but looks like they fixed it today. I'm seeing my white progress bar again. |
It is telling me the extension was last updated for me in September.. |
I have no idea. All I know is YouTube recently did an update, which broke my custom white progress bar, replacing it with their new red to pink gradient. And today now the white progress bar is back. So if that is back to working again, then no complaints from me. |
Odd. Where did you get this update from? As I said the extension hasn't been updated since September. |
I don't know if it was auto-updated or not. But the progress bar is white again. So I don't know why that happened, but I know for sure that it did. I have a YouTube vid going right now with a white progress bar. |
Ya, weird. You have both the like and dislike buttons pressed in too (Thumbs icons are the white fill). |
It's totally random. Those thumbs up/down are not for the YT vid but are for Sponsorblock segment ratings. I middle-clicked probably 10 YT vids in a row and then went to each to pause each after they started playing. I don't really care about the bug, honestly I'd take this over the magenta gradient thing. I'll just wait for the update to get released, I was wondering if this was the "white" bar you started seeing. |
Nope, didn't work for me. I still have that ugly gradient. Are you perhaps not using a browser extension and are instead using a script that got updated? The Firefox extension still as of this moment says the last update was in Sep. Either they are sleeping on getting that one updated or I'm missing out somewhere. |
I'm on Chrome. That could be the reason my progress bar is back and yours isn't. Not sure though. |
⚬ PROBLEM:
Youtube's new update overrode the custom progress bar colour.
Now it's a haggard red to pink gradient. I can't revert it back to the white colour I like.
⚬ SOLUTION:
Update to the extension so the progress bar can be customized again.
⚬ ALTERNATIVES:
N/A
⚬ RELEVANCE / SCOPE:
YouTube video watch progress bar (at the bottom of the video).
⚬ "SIDE EFFECTS":
N/A
⚬ CONTEXT:

Thank you!
