YouTube may be undergoing another visual transformation, this time targeting the video page, which has remained relatively unchanged in recent years, according to a tweet by @XenoPanther. The web-based video page features a video window accompanied by the title and other details displayed below it. However, with the redesign witnessed by a select few over recent weeks, this information is now situated to the right of the video and appears much narrower. While the experience of watching a video remains largely unaffected, the relocation of comments and other details to the periphery constitutes a significant change in the interface. Naturally, any modifications to the interface can potentially influence watch time and user engagement, ideally in a positive manner.
