Damn, I know about that menu, and I even covered it in a previous post, but somehow it slipped my mind just as I was writing. Side effect of working on no sleep. I marked out that part from the post. Thanks!
As I often point out, YouTube operates as if it were not part of Google. Decisions made within that part of the company are very minimally influenced by other departments. Granted, that doesn't change that there are plenty of other examples, like Hangouts getting a nice tablet interface on the iPad while the Android side didn't even get some basic fixes, but I never really believe changes to the YouTube apps should be taken into account in the overall criticism of Google's treatment of Android.
In fairness, there are two ways to get to that screen, and the other one uses a solid gray status bar. I actually originally got the second screenshot using the other method, then realized it would look wrong, so I went back the other way to make sure they matched. But yeah, I would love to see that status bar die in a fire.
Yeah, but for <a href="https://www.androidpolice.com/2018/05/17/twitter-releases-pricing-information-account-activity-apis-force-third-party-clients-business/">how much longer?</a>
geez, I don't even have 50+ tweets in the last 30 days. Whoever set that as a metric was confused about what G+ is good at.
