What is "New UI"?
There's a link at the bottom of the site, "Switch to New UI": https://gerrit.osmocom.org/?polygerrit=1
The single worst issue in the "new UI" for me is that when a patch is in "WIP" mode, it is impossible "Reply" and send the draft comments. For that I need to go back to the old UI.
I also think some design choices are too thin/flimsy and "hard to see", the old ui has more contrast and substance.
I tried to send feedback on it, but doing so requires a google login or something equally useless, and they don't just provide an email address. So there I wasn't willing to drill further...
Otherwise the new UI is a huge improvement in that each patch shows the related patches *in the right sequence*, and on the summary page there is a row highlight on mouse hover, so it's 1000x easier to click the right row. Also the new UI remembers the patch reply text even if you click on an in-file draft comment and come back later, where the old UI obliterates your text.
Remembering the UI choice seems to be a cookie, so if you remove cookies on browser closing, you will always be thrown back to the old ui.
...so much for that :)
