Was this like the Facebook timeline thing where you could switch early if you want to, but eventually they forced it on you? It didn't look like this monday.

UGH.

Oh, awesome. Just changed it to compact.

"Comfortable" was not something I could tolerate. It honestly had me ready to change to a different E-Mail!

My only annoyance is that my old "ocean" theme (and anything that isn't black/dark, really) I used to use looks like crap now because of poor coloring choices of the list of messages with the new interpretation of the scheme. I keep checking to see if they had someone that has any grasp of visual design take a look at it but it never gets better.

Not really! It's not like there's any real difference between the different email providers. Why stick with something horrendous?

If you switch to compact mode it's tolerable.

Still WAY worse, but tolerable.

Where's this "compact" thing though. Where do I find this option? Though I doubt it'll solve my issues with the ugly color scheme I'm wondering if that'll help the overall look.

Because both hotmail and yahoo have tons of ads. And I wouldn't trust my email with other smaller providers.

Oh yeah this is also pretty damn awful. For some reason I couldn't access my old youtube account at all after the change, I had to make a new one. Not the end of the world, but annoying.

Oh they also have a "revert to old look" button there well that helps more than switching to "compact" does, though compact does look better.

TEMPORARILY, unfortunately. Just like that ****ty Facebook timeline thing, it looks like this is going to be an inevitably change.

I imagine this is all because it looks better on tablets or something. Ugh.

I admit I haven't checked yet, but is there any reason at all I can't block every single one of those ads with the click of a button like I can...everywhere else on the web?

Well sure but I can at least keep the better look going while it exists. Maybe by the time they force everyone to use it they'll have ported the Phantasea theme over without ruining it instead of moving me over to Ocean or made ocean's color scheme less terrible. And maybe they'll have improved other things too.

Gotta keep the faith.
