the problem i have with it is they've decided they are going to draw their own window decorations, forcefully phase out the concept of a 'title bar' in favor of pushing toolbars, search boxes, tabs, etc up there.. turning every program you use into an ugly chrome/firefox (at least in their default configuration) look-alike. even pushes all your file menus into a little "burger menu" on the right.. like they really want to make all programs behave and look like they're running in a browser.

they do awful things to the configuration screens too.. 5 changeable settings in a nearly 800x600 area is absolutely insane..
