If they end up removing the current UI I’ll end up cancelling my subscription. I’ve been a very happy paying customer for over 8 years now but this is ridiculous.
The current UI has text (!!) tabs instead of bland non descriptive icons. It has toolbars and menu items that I can configure.
I understand that the current generation of new developers are intimidated by so much raw power at their hands ;) But we have got to stop dumbing things down. It is killing a lot of experience and knowledge and will come back to haunt us as a society.
Jetbrains is currently THE reference when it comes to professional IDEs, changing what they’re doing will not go well for them :-(
Based on how they interacted with the users when they removed the colors for the icons, I don't think they care about user feedback and will just post made up reasons for the change ("colors are distracting when coding").
