It is not, there are actual colour categories at the top of the page which allow you to filter by thumbnails. This is what the Red page looks like for me:

I don't have the official app, so I choose to pretend this is a shitpost.

Haha A++ shitpost

In my defence I use Revanced and not Newpipe only because I like to have my subscriptions and watchlist synced up between devices

I'm really disappointed, was expecting all red videos to be those cringey red arrows pointing at irrelevant things.

Does that come with app update? I still have normal categories up there:

Google AB tests every tiny detail so you might not see it.

I have 19.03.35 Revanced; may be a regional trial?

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I have the official unmodded YouTube app v. 18.46.41.

Anyway, it would probably show up since it's not a client-side thing. Could be a regional thing. Or just random testing.

Why do you have the official app? I can never go back to normal youtube with all the in your face ads. Soon I'll stop using pixel phones if Google doesn't stop forcing me to buy google drive/photos subscription.

I saw it yesterday and thought I had brain damage for a minute.

You interacted with it, which means some ux designer somewhere is going to see the metrics and get encouraged
