@frobscottle One of the top items on https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/new-ui/
reflects my feelings quite good:

"Easy access to your tools
- Find all the tools under the More Tool Windows icon."

Sounds to me like a contradiction by itself...
Everything seems to be buried somewhere...

@frobscottle It makes so many things less accessible for me. I just want a classic menu bar with (sub-)menu items. I don't want to put some often used actions in the menu bar (I probably know the hot keys for those anyway), I just want a clean menu structure.
Tree vs. some piles of stuff

@onlinepersona Probably no big changes from 2024.1. I'm using the classic ui

Just installed the new version 2024.2 of @jetbrains #webstorm
I really really hate the new UI and I am very annoyed how Jetbrains tries to force me to use it.
Now it's even just a plugin 😠
Jetbrains, I'm a paying customer. This will stop at the moment when you no longer support the classic ui.
