Seeing the page of an add-on is so weird now. Not just because the content is a single column, but the order, it makes no sense:

  • Screenshots
  • About this extension
  • Ratings
  • Other popular extensions (recomendations)
  • Support this developer
  • Permissions of the extension
  • More information (version, last update, homepage, ...)
  • Release notes for the version

What is the most important info about the addon doing so far down?

Very good point, very odd!

Another in a line of "turn the desktop UI into a glorified mobile UI, completely negating the benefits of a desktop display so we don't have to do as much work".

Nothing changes much, its just the elements are all from top to down now and wider. I liked the old one more, where I had to less scroll. This new layout is more smartphone focused with vertical layout, while I use my big pc screen with horizontal layout. It's just not good. The only positive side is, it looks less cluttered and it is straightforward.

I didn't like the old look much. The new one is a bit clearer even though the ratings part is way too wide imho and could be combined with other information. That way one would have to scroll less too.
