Revert the new update released around Feb 2020

the2048

Discord recently updated. I get it, it's okay for fixing bugs. But updating shouldn't be for making the UI look literally 100x worse than it already did. May I ask what this looks like?

That's right, it looks terrible compared to how it did before. This is with 100% scaling, compact mode on, 15 point font, on a WSXGA+ (1680x1050) screen. I ask the UI design team at Discord this; revert the design, it looks literally terrible in compact mode and even worse in cozy mode.

    Note: if you don't see the issue, the spacing total can literally fit at least one more message on screen if it were shrunken down to how it were before. Here's a comparison from a friend who hasn't updated Discord and is using the 16 point font at 100%:

    and here's a comparison on my end, with the same font size and zoom:

    In my opinion, there is a large amount of wasted space that is onscreen. This could be reverted and the UI would be much better for those who prefer having more messages on screen.
