I’ll be honest, I do not like the new look. I find it so clunky and hard to use. I realize that we’re never going back to the simplistic (admittedly dated-looking) text-based view of the old website.
So, my suggestion is that you allow us to scale the UI on the page. What I mean by this is that we can adjust how much information we can view on a page at a time (usually through changing the font size). For me, part of why I find the website hard to use is how big everything is. There’s way too much scrolling where I used to see most everything on a single page.
For example, on the Crowd Calendar. First, I scroll down to the calendar, then I have to click “Row view.” Now I have the data in rows, but it’s so big I can only see three rows at a time. This is ineffecient and could be improved with an option to shrink the font size.
