Any help rolling it back? I really don't like it at all.

I hate the auto fill behaviour but I generally like all the other layout changes.

Honestly, if the fill button were a bit bigger or had fatter padding I think it would be ok. It just seems weird to have to be so careful clicking to activate the most common (by far) action that the whole damn thing is used for.

Im not sure how small your guys screens ours but mine actually says fill and nothing else has a word and the oval is a bit bigger than the stuff besides it. I dunno I find it stands out more and honestly nothing indicated fill much to me before so if it was like the first time I feel like this is more obvious than the old scheme.

I thought the old UI was ugly, this one isn't great, but at least it's using material3 rather than the Microsoft thing, it's a big improvement

Eh, it's fine

The only thing that really annoys me is the little notification things that pop up over the content. Like I have to wait to copy a password because it’s telling me I’ve just copied a username.

Oh and that it’s now pointlessly doubled the clicks, so to copy a username, instead of clicking the “copy username” icon, you have to click the “copy something” icon and then click “username”. So four clicks to use an entry that isn’t autofilled instead of two.

Agreed. Not sure what the UX/UI rationale was for making things need more clicks than before. It was fine as it was.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

This is my only gripe. Now if I want to copy a password it's an extra click for reasons. But it looks good.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 1 points 7 months ago

might be nice if copy had a hover over effect but honestly I don't even notice the extra click since its pretty immediate.

Yes, it is dog shit ugly. But every redesign has quirks at the beginning. I’m sure they’ll keep working on it, and with enough feedback, they’ll fix the issues.

I absolutely hate it. Why did they remove the buttons at the bottom?! I now have to always pop out the window to access things like the Generator and the pop out window seem to have issues with scaling, cutting out the right side on its default window size.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I still have them on Firefox, unless you mean some other buttons at the bottom.

Oh. weird, mine doesn't look like that

I think we have different versions or different browsers. I have the latest v2024.12.3 on FF

[–] DarkThoughts@fedia.io 1 points 7 months ago

No, same version & browser.

[–] supermurs@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

It's terrible, I hate it too!

[–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago

It's ugly and less user friendly. Not a fan.

[–] Preflight_Tomato@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

I actually really like the new UI. The settings menus are more legible and seem better organized now too.

[–] faintwhenfree@lemmus.org 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I am all for redesign and making it simple, but I also want them to add a toggle to take it back to information and action rich UI they had before, you already mentioned fill button being weird, I also hate I can't copy username and password separately with one click, now I have to open a drop down to copy them separately. I hate it when they make changes that increase number of actions to do things, I understand they have to make it simpler for masses, but they should always add some setting to make it customisable allowing user to choose if they want advanced or Basic UI, forcing basic UI is not the way to do.

[–] Interstellar_1@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 7 months ago

They are going to be changing the fill ui behaviour to something better. imo I don't care for the new UI, but it's not like I'm looking at it all the time so I don't really care.
