For at least a decade now every UI redesign has been useless chasing own's tail. Only rearranging items and adding white spaces. Android, JetBrains, MacOS, iOS, Windows. Sometimes I use a relict software or device with UI from 10-15 years ago and it was perfectly fine. Modern UIs introduce no advantage, even icons are not getting prettier anymore.

The jetbrains UI redesign actually allowed me to reclaim screen space. I immediately jumped on the beta and stayed with it in every editor.

Though there are other issues with their ides like slow fixing of reported bugs, and improper support for new feature which is most likely because of the bespoke implementation of everything

I have to agree. UI updates generally go wrong because users are conservative and loathe any changes to their workflow, even if it improves it. I won't judge anybody who disliked the update, but to die on this hill is a bit silly (imo).

It took me some time (like a few days) to get used to the UI but it is a general improvement
