I don't - I really dislike the navigation. For me the old design was much more user friendly. 50 Shades Of Blue Aug 2023 #2

After playing around, I placed my settings on Skinner Mode. Niagara Aug 2023 #8

I did that too! Not crazy about that either though, just want the current style to remain! 50 Shades Of Blue Aug 2023 #9

Not bad, but I don't see a purpose to fixing things that aren't broken, nor change for the sake of change. I do like that has an option for dark mode.

And it means a lot coming from someone who hates change, and who can *always* find something to critique (that sounds softer than 'criticize' doesn't it?)

They hit it out of the park!
