I didn't see any fundamental features being changed, yet now old people will have to get used to something pointless. Maybe I am in the minority, but I prefer quality over quantity in terms of design upgrades. For example, a sustain feature besides 8-bit is something Jacob_ seems to be unable to do because of his lack of experience, according to him. Also useful would be different time signatures and other stuff I forget. Also, if quantity is what is wanted, more scales would be nice. Also, he could redesign the scales feature so you have separate areas for the Key and Mode.
I disagree. I agree that the change in colors is going to be hard to get used. However, the drop down instrument selector and mixer tabs will be quite obnoxious with all the new instruments, I think this new sidebar will be very useful. The header changes are completely cosmetic; if you're trying to complain about this, then you're just looking for something to be upset about. Your other suggestions are valid, but beggars can't be choosers. I personally believe the only reason you're criticizing this update is for attention; there's nothing wrong with it.
I agree with you, and I think the update is good, but it's Frank's own opinion to not like the new update, and I personally think it's kind of rude to call him off as an attention grabber for simply having a different opinion. While I feel it's okay to disagree with someone respectfully, telling someone that he/she is wrong and is just looking for something to complain about isn't really the best idea.
Granted, if he made up crap and took things out of context to somehow call the new site "ableist," then you may need to raise some questions. But simply showing discontent for legitimate reasons is nothing more than expressing an opinion, regardless on whether or not you agree.
Again, I agree that the new update is good, and I do think that OS has some problems (The sidebar would be so much better than the stupid drop down thing, especially with all the instruments we are gonna have), but I don't think that someone should be passed off as looking for attention simply for not agreeing. Just saying.
As a side note, I recommend that some instruments should be grouped together, such as the drum kits together, the strings together, the guitars together, the 8 bits together, and so on. Just a small change.
