Thanks - the Favourites roomlist section will be back shortly; we just hadn't re-added sections to the rewritten roomlist (and in retrospect, probably shouldn't have launched without it). In fact I think they've already landed (experimentally) on the same roomlist component but in the Element X Web playground at https://github.com/element-hq/aurora.

> And then there's paragraph spacing between replies given one after the other, is to small. Setting margin to 10px (think its 4px now) makes a world of improved reading already.

Hm, is that new? Probably something to propose for the compact layout.

That's not a complete fix though. The split between users and groups was also really important. Because the old view showed the top X chats in both categories at the same time. I'm not sure about others but for me the group chats are less important but update more frequently and when they're bunched together the individual user chats get drowned out. Favouriting them all isn't really an option either as I have too many.

There's a filter now but then you don't see group chats at all unless you turn that off again, making it very restless to have to constantly switch.

However it's great to see the favs are coming back.

Given the people / rooms section split was my idea in the first place, i can try to make a case to have it as an option. (Interestingly I haven’t missed it much)
