#Mastodon is getting a new look in our upcoming 5.0 release.
We wrote a bit more about our design process and how we approach community input. If you’re on mastodon.social you will see the new design tomorrow, on Tuesday. We rely on your feedback!

@Mastodon Thanks, I hate it.
Any way of going back to the old UI? It's harder to navigate, requires more clicks to find things and there's too much wasted empty space in the non advanced UI.
And rounded everything is a crime. I hate this UI so much that it makes me quit using Mastodon.
@Mastodon WTF ? It's ugly and totally different. You could at least propose and let people chose the version of the interface . It was more practical as it was before ...
@Mastodon Oooof. Can't pull away from today's work to dive in on detailed feedback yet, but can report that the experience from the Advanced Web Interface (at least in Safari browser) is rough. No clear division between columns, general visual clarity lost, compose box left side cut off by left sidebar, "where is my search box"?, and overall "what the heck happened; yikes" feeling.
@Mastodon just saw the changes. really nice work! thank you!
@Mastodon It's gross and I hate it. why this little pop up window to type a reply. I have to look down here for this shit now on advanced mode?
WHY?
Just... why? What's with all the rounded corners?
Change for the sake of change is not a good enough reason.
Just... give us an option to have the old design back.
@Mastodon It just went live. Where is dark mode?! Purple isn't dark mode. This is horrible.
@Mastodon 5.0 today at what rime (CEST)? By the way, I'm on v4.8.0-alpha.3+pr-41085-a68fedb right now.
@Mastodon Err. When on Tuesday?
I still have the existing interface here.
I was geared up (with gritted teeth) for the change.
I guess I have to wait a bit?
@Mastodon that's how I know I came to somehow hate modern computing : my first thought reading this was "oh, no"
@Mastodon I like shiny new things and the new Firefox no the theme wasn’t that bad even though everyone was complaining so I welcome new change. I welcome new UI. Let’s do this. Let’s do this together.!
@Mastodon I'm excited to go to bed and wake up to a new Mastodon tomorrow. 🥱
@Mastodon [whining] But I don't want to sign up for yet another account to provide feedback about the Mastodon redesign.

@Mastodon looking forward to trying the new version out!
@Mastodon
Please add the option to display the post window the way it used to be.
We didn’t want to require you to have a GitHub profile to report issues or suggest ideas, so starting now you can do it on our new community forum.
You can also vote for other people’s ideas to keep things manageable. It’s the main place we’ll be looking for feedback!
@Mastodon Instead we need accounts for that instead?
@Mastodon Since I can't get the forum to load, I just wanted to check here: is the new "likes" system is just a cosmetic name change or are you passing "Like" events onto followers?
