new Layout gives me headaches
hi,
I am in the unfortunate group that got the new stream layout with the title and all the information above the stream, not below it as it was used to.
First of all, The tabs for video, clips, chat ... are no longer there.
But more importantly: The new layout gives me headaches. I cannot tell if it is purely the contrast or the fact that we trained our brains and eyes for serveral decades now that the information belongs below the video. I have to scroll down so the information is no longer on Screen to be able to watch it.
I am using dark mode

This new layout feels very clunky and very early 2000's. It weighs down page and draws the eyes to the top INSTEAD of the stream and streamer. Overall if this is what twitch would have looked liked when i started watching I wouldn't have stuck around. It's a very bad change.

This new layout sucks, and why would you change something that didn't need fixing. why would you put the stream info up top and nothing looks like it flows well anymore.

This new UI change is very bad! Makes it very unpleasant to view our favorite streamers.

Please revert this layout change! There is nothing I like about this, and it just does not make any sense to have it laid out like it is now. Overall it is just simply unappealing to look at.

I really hate the new layout. The question is why did this change happen to a limited number of people and not to everyone? At least Twitch could have made some adjustments so we could go back to the original state. its really feels me bad

Please revert this. It's obstructive to the stream experience and doesn't flow well at all.

This layout does not feel good and just generally looks awful all the stuff is separated and it does not feel good to interact with or look at

Please, PLEASE, Twitch, revert this for me. It makes me very nervous to view the stream in this layout, and I don't have an option to put it below the stream again.
I am currently viewing Twitch on a Laptop, and it makes the whole stream show like 70 Pixels lower than usual. While this may not seem like much, it makes a very uncomfortable difference for me. It's harder to view, as my eyes are used to look a bit more to the top of the screen, and now I feel like I constantly have to look down or scroll it down, but then I don't see the information I'm used to see anymore, that I find generally useful (but not overly important that I have to have them at the top of the stream).
Apart from that, I am now seeing small black bars at the left and right edges of the stream; it appears like it's gotten a bit narrower than it is in the usual version, as if the space that is now at the top of the stream was stripped off the height ot the stream.
I am using dark mode on Firefox (on Chrome, I don't get these black bars at the left and right edges of the stream).
I cannot stress enough how this seemingly simple change stresses me out. :-(
