It just force-updated for me. I had clicked the "wait two weeks" (or however many weeks) prompts, delaying the inevitable, but had thought I would at least still be able to click the "revert" button as soon as the change occurred. There was no button this time.

So I clicked through to the "simple HTML" version as soon as the link presented itself at the bottom of the fancy new splash screen and have been a little less unhappy ever since.

Now I just need to quit talking about it and finally finish my move out of Google's house. Everything else is out except for the email. The damn email.

Yup, the 5s+ delay difference with the new version was the exact kick in the butt I needed to finish my migration to fastmail.
The Gmail plugin for thunderbird works well. For me that's the first step away. Next step is arange a imap account somewhere.
