Good video, very much worth watching despite the length. New UI will look something like this:

with an option for a more classic look.

Looks like an enourmous UX improvement too, and a rewrite to QT and eliminating a lot of technical debt will make development faster.

    Are people are actually upset about an auto update feature? A feature that has been pretty standard in programs for a very long time?

    I understood some of the upset when they added telemetry, but auto-update?

      Not even auto-update. Just auto detect updates. Then you go and download it yourself manually.

      Auto-update-detection meant that the software was calling out to a remote server, so they updated the TOS to reflect that, and people got upset.
