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.
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”.
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.
