I dunno. I got the new interface and like...it's aggressively meh?

Nothing amazing, nothing terrible. Y'all are starting to sound like late-10s Facebook grandmas.

"But it looks like vibe code!" Yeah, and in the 90s everything looked like Windows, and in the early-00s everything was skeuomorphic, and in the mid-10s everything was flat design. This is an unfortunate design trend, but they're all unfortunate.

"But rounded corners!" ...so? I mean, honestly, I can't think of a single logical objective problem with them. I don't like them much either, but I don't have any actual criticism of them.

As far as I can tell, the only reasonable objection is that they aren't super great for colorblind folks. That's real and should absolutely be fixed. But beyond that...

    Just a week ago, my computer was perfectly fine for daily internet usage, now that they modernised the UI and i updated UI sometimes lags behind in firefox. It has slightly worse performance than before, i used to use x201, firefox got stuttery with some forums i used(no stutters with chromium, just ff) and i updated to x230. Now this one has visible lagging as well, ff doesn't provide any improvements over chromium, i just use it out of stubbornnes yet it just keeps getting worse and i have to compremise more to use it. I am always around the bottom border of performance, ff is always the reason i have to upgrade but i don't have a laptop i want to uprade to. Now i am on the lookout for some new browser even thought i don't wanna.

    You can disable the new ui. Go to about:config and set "browser.nova.enabled" to false. Not sure if it'll fix the lagging tho since it might be caused by something else that came with the update.

    I reverted back before my prior comment, at this point looking for settings to revert the changes is standart procedure for ff updates.

    I am slowly changing to qt browser, i stopped using it bc it was slower than ff but that changed at some point.
