Youtube New Design Not Compatible anymore
Hello,
I Noticed this Morning that I had returned to the old UI of Youtube.
When I go to https://www.youtube.com/new it is said that the Browser is not compatible and suggests me to use Google Chrome (Ha Ha). Yet It was working well until yesterday and my build of Edge (Dev Channel) does not seems to have updated....
Does anyone have the same problem ?
Is it the same thing than for the 'Google Meet' story ?
EDIT: Once again, changing User Agent throught the inspector for 'Chrome - Windows' fixes the issue.
Seems to be fixed.
Thanks a lot :)

- I only see the new YouTube. I'm running Canary. YT Music and YT Gaming also work for me.
Google Duo and Google Earth don't work for me. There's no reason for Duo not to work. MS could probably do something with the user agent there.
I had to get an extension to bring the old one back, Why? The same reason I use Creator Studio Classic: performance. YouTube's new site still has a bug with touch that I reported while it was in testing. Tapping and holding on a video title/thumbnail will not open the context menu and will instead play the video. Screw Polymer. It's even slow in Chrome. I use an extension to get a dark theme. apprenti90
Yes, same here both, Dev & Canary. If I wanted Chrome, would have had it long ago. "HA HA" is right.
YouTube is ok, but, not YTNew
And, there is another issue! There settings available in YT are VERY different if using Edge or Edge C; including, YT in Edge C has no Dark Mode. BTW, it's the same whether YT or YTNew.
YTNew DOES work fine in Edge. Just not Edge C.
Cheers,
Drew- Similarly, YouTube Music (music.youtube.com) not working at all.

We are aware of this issue and are working with the site owners to get it addressed. Thank you for taking the time to try out the Insider channels of Microsoft Edge.
apprenti90 can confirm
- Yes, same happened to me. After user-agent switch it worked.
- I am on Canary and the issue is there for me too
For everyone that is having this problem (i'm included) just use this extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher-and-m/bhchdcejhohfmigjafbampogmaanbfkg
