I think I like the way the new design looks, though I get why so many people complain about it and can relate to them. It's really hard to navigate with the images of the old design still fresh in my memory. But that's probably the matter of getting used to.
The biggest problem-problem with the new design that I see is that EVERYTHING IS SO BIG AND SCATTERED ALL OVER. Everything is so big and you see less information on screen than you could have with the old design, you have to scroll up and down for every tiny bit of information, and it isn't convenient in the slightest. And the text is still small so Ctrl + [-] is not an option.
I don't know. I want to like this redesign, but I feel conflicted. To me, it's become less user-friendly in terms of interface than it was, and I'm sad. Where's the joy in driving a shiny new sports car if it can't go straight and keeps steering slightly sideways and you have to be careful and drive really slowly instead of going full speed? It still works, yes, but it doesn't work to its full potential. That's what this new design is to me. A broken sports car. I'll take my old beat-up SUV anyday.
