@Kaliah I do not have the new layout you described earlier, it must be rolling out to certain users. Or, maybe I have the wrong app version? But all my apps are up to date. It’s interesting how some apps take a while to update for certain people.

@miguelorduno6 Yeah, I'm not sure why or how I have it and others don't. Either way I really don't want it.

@Kaliah I don’t blame you for not wanting it, I hate when developers do that, like if the app works, leave it be!

@miguelorduno6 Exactly. I want what I was used to, not a stupid new layout. I don't even like it. The old one was better in my use case.

@tmmahaff That's so weird. Why did I get it then?

@Kaliah no idea. I know others did too though.

@TheQuinbox @tmmahaff I wish you could opt out of that

@BTyson That's so weird. Why did I get it then

@Kaliah It could be a gradual rollout. As an example, the App Store only showed that I could update to 193.1 even though you have 194.

@BTyson Yeah. Maybe it is. I really wish I could go back though because I don't like or want it, like I've said 35 thousand times.

@Kaliah @BTyson Welcome to iOS.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Yep.

@Kaliah @BTyson We need sideloading. Android? I'd just grab a 193.1 APK off like apkmirror or apptoid, install it, and be done.

@Kaliah @BTyson The EU cunts are gonna get sideloading on iOS, but we aren't. Asdlkjasfdlkjasdf

@Kaliah @BTyson Yeah...because like you've yet to say your actual problems with it other than that it's different.

@BTyson as if that'll go anywhere. Still probably not going to make a difference because it probably looks good, and that's what matters to people. Forget accessibility, this looks better, so it must be better

@Kaliah @BTyson Okay but like actually what's your problem with the new interface? I'd very much like DMs to be their own tab. I haven't tried it yet, but that sounds nice as hell. No more wasting like 45 seconds trying to find the god damn DM button.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson My problem is exactly that. I don't want DM's in their own tab. I really don't. I prefer them at the top above the servers. And I also don't want my servers at the bottom of the screen as a second tab bar. Oh and did I mention that, if you have more than like 4 servers, you have to click an extra button to see the rest? I have lots of problems with the new interface.

@Kaliah @BTyson No, you didn't, hence my utter and complete confusion. Sending 50 replies to different people just saying that you don't like it is a very ineffective strategy for letting people actually know *why* to avoid it.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson I did talk about the changes in a public post, though. Before the one at the start of this thread.

@Kaliah @BTyson You didn't. At least not the ones that I'd actually consider bad. DMs are in a tab ,and the server list moved. Who cares?

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Maybe I care. Maybe other people won't like it like I didn't. That's the changes that annoyed me. I don't like any of it. The only one I didn't mention was the extra servers button.

@Kaliah @BTyson That's the only annoying one in my case. If you don't like updates that change UIs for no good reason that's totally understandable, all be it exceedingly ironic given your posts about Windows 11.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Windows 11 didn't have anything that broke my productivity. Other than the quick settings thing, which I actually do really hate.

@Kaliah @TheQuinbox We could always make another thread for this one, but were you able to go in and remove the ones you didn't need?

@BTyson @TheQuinbox Yes, but I still don't really like it. I prefer the old windows 10 thing. Especially if you click on stuff from windows B, like the network and stuff like that. I much, much prefer how windows 10 did that.

@BTyson @Kaliah Yeah, she didn't. That's horrifying.

@Kaliah @BTyson Yeah that's horrible. Might want to edit your original post though, because I personally give 0 shits about redesigned UIs, and I know a lot of people feel the same way. That, though? A lot of people will care about that.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Yeah. Changing an entire UI causes a lot of problems for me because 1, I don't do well with massive change like that, and 2, it is not explore by touch friendly at all. For example when exploring by touch the servers are unbelievably small and hard to find. Things are just unbelievably broken.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson I never had any problems with that. The servers were scrolled down the left side of the screen and I could touch on them, and the channels were in the right. Clicking on servers and stuff would change the channels in the right. That's simple and easy. This just makes it complicated.

@Kaliah @BTyson Yeah no, it never worked like that for me, the swipe order was always weird. I *never* explore by touch though, so maybe that's why? I had no idea servers were down the left side for example.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Nope, they totally are. And I liked them by that. Also you think the swipe order was weird in the old layout, just wait until you see the new one. It's completely fucked up there too. I used the old interface by touch exploring, which is why I liked it.

@Kaliah @BTyson Oh well that would make sense then. I never explore by touch ever, so it was weird.

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Yeah, then I see why. The old interface was great if you explored by touch, this one... Really is not.

@BTyson @Kaliah Oh yeah, once again welcome to iOS. Not sure if that's an iOS problem but it doesn't happen on Android and it's build with a cross-platform SDK so shrugs.

@BTyson @Kaliah Fun fact, another uniquely iOS problem is swiping left from the text field just throwing you somewhere random in the messages list. #EpicFail

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Yup. Yet another reason I always touch explore it.

@BTyson @Kaliah Oh I have. Just on iOS though. That was my whole point.

@BTyson @Kaliah Although I don't think that's an app crash. It apparently stays rendered visually.

@Kaliah @TheQuinbox It is for me, because I'll get thrown back to the home screen, and VoiceOver doesn't say "active" when I navigate to it in the switcher.
