Every time I read "YouTube redesign" I hope for a proper Material You design (including adaptive colors). Instead it's always just some menus shifting around.

It makes me really mad cause YouTube is clearly taking ideas from Material Design 3, and even M3 recommends customizing it, but the way YouTube has done it is to make components smaller and harder to use in comparison to canonical M3. Like the bottom bar which is way thinner than the M3 one in comparison.
It makes YouTube look like it's using a M3 knockoff
YouTube has gone far from Material Design long time ago. The thin ugly icons are just one from many of the examples.
Today I learned there's a library tab. I clicked in on it and am sure I've never seen that before.
Have you never looked at your history or playlists? Or maybe there's another way to access those.
Yes, I use both pretty heavily. But they're right there in the same menu, what's under Library just seems like a less useful version of what I want.
I thought you meant the app, but yeah, that's true for the desktop version.
I've only ever used NewPipe on the phone, can't be bothered with the ads.

I've never even looked at the "library" tab in my life and wasn't even aware it existed until reading this post.
It's basically just for your playlists, favorites, and watch history. "Library" never made much sense for that tab anyway.
doesnt look bad i think
honestly, I think YouTube music is kind of been on a roll lately with changes. I know some people were against the comment section being at it for songs, but I love it
When it provides all the same functionality and navigablility as Play Music, it will be on a roll.
As long as it keeps trying to game all of Spotify's terrible choices, it will always be subpar.
Can you elaborate on what functionality is missing? I hear this all the time and I haven't been able to get an actual answer as to what is missing
I agree. I have been. Enjoying the live lyrics update and I glance in the comments every now and then too.
