My first immediate reaction was that it is awful, but I'm not sure actually, I think I can get used to it. The only real UX "bugs" I found so far:

- the frontpage for Vault no longer shows the categories (Login/Card/Identity) you have to use filter now for that (= +2/3 more clicks)

- when you search something there is no way to "go back" or clear the search, you have to manually clear the search text from the input field

More design related:

- the new "compact mode" should probably be the default and it also should decrease the font size (although you can just zoom-out)

Also I think some user complains where already addressed via settings, in Appearance you can switch on "Compact Mode" (also you should zoom in once more Ctrl+Minus once or twice) and turn on "Show quick copy actions on vault".

Tech is Typescript/Angular/Tailwind btw. pretty bloated as expected, but whatever
