I don't like the junk down the left side of the screen. I don't like the colors... BOOOORING!
I don't like those distracting little twitter things at the bottom of the posts.

I agree. I HATE the new DU! No color, no videos, too hard to find anything, boring for newcomers

I agree. What I find really strange is that DUs Classic look is only available to paid members.
