PiP looks great. There's nothing stopping you from opening two browser windows side by side, but that's a huge pain. I don't want all the various other parts of the webpage showing, or to have to resize the window manually to just show the video. I just want to pop-out the video only. I love the feature on my iPad. I think when you try it, you may grow to appreciate it.

For me at least, there is no way to look at that screenshot of a space-wasting yet partially occluded fullscreen app with an awkwardly-placed naked video component on top of it and say it "looks great". > windows side by side, but that's a huge pain Window positioning on OS X is a huge pain because literally no work has been done on this by Apple for many years now. Other OSes all have window snapping and other conveniences, but on OS X I need 3rd-party software for that. What's more is that PiP is a barely adequate specialized component from iOS. The more generalized desktop element would instead have allowed to "PiP" any window content I choose by essentially being an always-on-top decorator-less partial window. But the way they are presenting it is not going to be empowering for desktop users in any way. It's a thoughtlessly ported component from the more unpleasant corners of the Youtube iOS app.

- eDameXxX 10y agoVery similiar feature in Opera desktop since 4 month now [1]. It works pretty good on Windows, Mac and Linux. [1] http://www.opera.com/blogs/desktop/2016/04/opera-beta-update-video-pop/ http://www.opera.com/blogs/desktop/2016/04/opera-beta-update...
