Yea I think people will get used to it soon enough. The big plus for me, is the font is slightly larger than the latest.

Nice work.

Edit
I guess one can always change it to there personal preference anyway. I see nothing wrong with making it the default.

The old one still be available for those that like it I assume ?

seems like some of the elements are more space efficient on the right and some on the left.

aside from that i’d say the right hand one looks slightly better to me
