too much wasted whitespace.

fwiw, I can't get past that either, too much scrolling involved for me, the insider news is at least 2 page scrolls for example, the rest is fine, but less is not more in this case, it's the same amount in a bigger space.
 
For me it would either smaller fonts, less white space or using 'tabs' to allow more content to be seen without scrolling, just simple clicks

TBH, too much wasted whitespace for mouse usage; just about right for a tablet.

I feel completely neutral about it. I don't think it was an improvement or a disimprovement (I feel like there's a real word for this, but I'm too tired to think of it).

I meant a word for "disimprovement", which Firefox tells me is not a word at all.
 
But that does sum up my overall feeling.

You could always use "worsening".

That's closer. And Firefox agrees that it is a word. Laugh | :laugh: (I think I need a real dictionary...and a thesaurus.)

Ambivalent.
 
But I don't care if you agree or not.
It was broke, so I fixed it.
