Nothing has changed for me... maybe it is a theme thing?

No it is staggered release. Soon it will ask you if you want to switch to the new layout now or delay it. Either way you HAVE to switch to it eventually.

Haven't been happy with any of the changes to gmail over the years. But this one is worse than previous.

Under heavy use, Thunderbird is a P.O.S.

FYI.

Yeah I'm not a Thunderbird fan at all. Then again, I'm not an Outlook fan either.

What is with Google creating new options for their websites and forgetting to make it actually optional? I've been getting more and more disgusted with how they are doing things.

its because google owns your soul, and doesn't care if it isn't happy!

If you just click the little gear thing up in the right you can change it to a more acceptable format.

I like the new look, but I use Google Docs a lot and it has been there for a while so maybe I am just used to it.

The "compact" mode is ok, but it is still not as easy to use as it was before.

I have a lot of folders that filter my messages and below that I have my friends that I can chat with. With the original layout I could just whip the mouse wheel up and down and see everything. Now I have to go grab some sliver of a pane and drag it up and down. It is just silly and awkward, not a change that was needed.

Yeah I'm not a big fan of the new layout. Or a fan at all for that matter.
