Humans are creatures of habit, and unless we provoke a change ourselves, there’s a high chance we’ll reject any alterations to our workflow. This is something YouTube likely didn’t consider when rolling out its November Android app redesign.

The changes include a renewed focus on Custom Feeds, the removal of the Subscriptions tab from the bottom bar, and a greater emphasis on Shorts. Even worse, the new Subs tab foregos Filters, a key feature that helped users find content they want to watch.

My colleagues aren’t too thrilled by the changes, but we wanted to hear your thoughts. We ran a poll asking readers what they think of the redesign. YouTube might want to have a look at the results.

More than 92% of the 1,274 voters said that they “hate” the redesign and want YouTube to return the Subscriptions tab to its rightful place. It’s safe to say that readers have spoken.

There are other issues our readers highlighted in the comments section, including the removal of the Posts button.

I hate that they removed the posts button so I can’t see all the posts from my subscriptions in one place anymore. I don’t have time to click through every profile individually to see if they MIGHT have posted.

Also, I have premium but no option for custom feeds. What is everyone talking about?

On I just got the big YouTube redesign on my Android phone, and I hate it
