Video Call UI

Hello, I just wanted to offer some constructive feedback... I am very displeased with the new user interface when in a video call with friends. All of the icons are "smushed" together until you hover, making it near impossible to see who's chatting without mousing over the highlighted avatar. Also, what was the need to increase the size of the "Turn On Camera/Mute/Screen Share/Disconnect" buttons by 400%? I just don't understand. I know those buttons disappear when the video is not hovered on, so it's not horrible. But honestly, please "unstack" the participant avatar icons. And make them rounded squares again. PLEASE!

Tagging on because I don't want to make a separate thread.

I agree for the most part. The buttons being significantly bigger, I can understand if it's to account for accessibility — maybe a tad smaller? I actually like that screen-sharing is its own button now. But where did the settings button go? Now I'm forced to click on the User Settings gear icon on the bottom left, and then click on Voice settings. Please add it back. :(
