In addition, YouTube links in video descriptions will now appear as buttons. To “minimize distractions,” the service has redesigned popular activities such as liking, sharing, and downloading. Furthermore, the subscribe button will be redesigned as a pill-shaped button rather than a rectangular one. Although the button will no longer be red, YouTube claims that the high-contrast revamp will make it more visible on watch sites and channel pages.
These modifications are being implemented by YouTube today. They should be available to everyone in the next weeks.
